What hardware have you had that experience on? Probably going to build a new Linux box this year, and I'd like to pick hardware that's as hassle free for wine/proton as possible.


So far I’ve had no problem with my Ryzen+Nvidia 1660x.

I’d maybe try to find an AMD GPU but I bought one of those first but need tensorflow and AMDs GPU support for ML was almost non-existent.


Personally I've had no end of problems using an nvidia GPU on Linux.

For example, some driver packages support Steam but not CUDA, while others support CUDA but not Steam [1, 2].

And I found some instructions online that let me "fix" it to work with both - but thereafter, any time I used CUDA I would lose audio when I next resumed from suspend.
