Building my New PC, Options...

[BarracudaUAK]

Well, since my last post here, several things have changed...

So my new PC will most likely be just a new video card.


With the recent price drops (down well below launch prices!), and the DC (formerly DAL) code getting mainlined in Linux 4.15, I'm thinking Vega 64 will be the card.

But now it comes down to 2 (or 3?) options.

1: Get the card now and use RC kernels (i.e. testing/alpha) until the kernel is "released" mid-January.

2: Wait a few months for the cards to drop down a bit more, and the code to be refined a bit further.

Or

3: Wait until the replacement for the Vega launches, and get the Vega 64 dirt cheap.


Decisions, decisions...

But, I'm leaning toward "1". But the lack of cards in stock at most places means it will probably be either "2" or "3"...

ohh well.......
