AMD cards now with AMDGPU are vastly more convenient than Nvidia ones under Linux. AMDGPU is fully open source, so everything JustWorks™ without installing anything. Everything is shipped in Mesa and the kernel itself, and it does not require anything else.
- `radeon` is in the box (for Fedora, I assume Ubuntu) and has worked on half a dozen different cards over the last decade. I've never installed `amdgpu` but it looks no more difficult than nVidia's proprietary drivers?
- Thunderbolt is a continuing problem, though TB3 is significantly improved IME. Docks and multi-monitor over DisplayPort MST are fine. Haven't tried PCIe extensions.
- Many-buttoned mice work better than they do on Macs, I'll tell you that much.
