Bookmarking in case I need a GPU for SiFive's upcoming RISC-V PC. I haven't seen whether it's shipping with graphics output or nah.

GeForce GT 710! 👍😁 Passively cooled - that's what I've been using in my Debian server for many months now. It was a good choice, with it my UPS estimation time without AC power went from 50 minutes to an hour and few minutes, all thanks to getting rid of old AMD Radeon HD2400 Pro 256MB and replacing it with GT 710 2GB. 😊 It's using less power so server can live longer within AC.

This is of interest, thanks Michael. Now, I wonder if I can find one in Japan...

Thus you can have a 100% free software solution with the Kepler GPU unlike newer NVIDIA GPUs on Nouveau or even newer Intel and AMD GPUs also requiring firmware blobs for hardware initialization.
APU is a solid choice, too. The following board has four display outputs:
Supports AMD AM4 Socket Ryzen™3000, 3000 G-Series, 4000 G-Series, 5000 and 5000 G-Series Desktop Processors; 6 Power Phase design; Supports DDR4 4733+ (OC); 1 x PCIe 3.0 x16, 2 x PCIe 3.0 x1, 1 x PCI; Graphics Output Options: D-Sub, HDMI, DVI-D, DisplayPort*; 7.1 CH HD Audio (Realtek ALC887 Audio Codec); 4 x SATA3, 1 x Ultra M.2 (Gen3x4 & SATA3); 6 x USB 3.2 Gen1(4 x Rear, 2 x Front); 6 x USB 2.0 (2 x Rear, 4 x Front); Realtek Gigabit LAN, supports DASH function*Only DVI-D will function if DVI-D and DisplayPort 1.4 ports are both connected.Last edited by oleid; 22 October 2020, 10:46 PM.

Funny, I've had the exact opposite experience of Intel drivers in Linux, with multiple kernels (from 4.18-5.3) being unusable because the Intel driver would cause soft locks (and resets) of the iGPU at random intervals.

Michael awesome article, I liked how it highlights all the effort from nouveau developers, how the perf approaches/surpasses nvidia, unfortunately nvidia crippled nouveau efforts 😔
Congrats for the devs involved (listed the ones that I remember their accounts)

And until kernel 5.4 it was happening all the time on that - it was so bad I stuck with 4.15 branch. So maybe it's an issue for the newer ones? My i7-4000 laptop (I forget exactly which CPU it has in it, but one with the Iris Pro iGPU) also has an nVidia 980M, and spends its life running with the 980M - thus if the iGPU locks up, I don't see it.
