If you still feel you must buy a new card, I can only advise you on nVidia models. Proprietary driver support for these is always a moving target. I currently have a GeForce GTX 1050 chipsetted card, which is three or four generations old at this point and probably going to age out of support in the next couple of years. While I've never had any problems with the card and chipsets from this generation are currently cheap, I wouldn't advise buying one as anything more than a stopgap. My experience with nouveau as a driver (on my laptop, which has an NV40 chipset that aged out of manufacturer support a long time ago) has been mixed, so I don't generally recommend it unless a card has left the nVidia support envelope. ATI/AMD may be a bit better supported than nVidia these days, but their cards currently have the same pricing problem. :/ E. Liddell
