My old 4790k finally died, and I need to replace both the CPU & MB. I was wondering if there would be any conflict in having an AMD CPU and an Nvidia GPU.

I want to use Bazzite on it. I’m running the same distro on my main rig and I’m very happy with it.

Any suggestions?

    It looks like the 5800x3D (and other AM4 cups) have been discontinued. They are going out of stock everywhere. Might be better to go with AM5 (7000 and 9000 series) at this point.

      Fair point. Hadn’t followed recently, but that suggestion makes sense. I would personally buy used, but I totally understand others not wanting to and buying the newer chips would make the most sense there.
