I plan to build a PC, probably I will buy some used one to save money, with the specific goal to use it as a video editing machine. Right now I only have a Dell XPS 13 laptop and Davince Resolve doesn’t work on Linux on a integrated graphics card as far as I understand. At least I was not able to get it running.
So I’m looking for a graphics card which would not be super expensive but still compatible with both Linux and Davinci Resolve. It would be nice if the drivers were open source, but it’s not a must.
I will mostly be editing 1080p because 4k videos are just to big and I’m hosting them myself and it’s already expensive.
Not sure what year your laptop is from but depending on the ports you have available, you can get a GPU enclosure to open up your options on cards you can get.
It’s from 2020. So you mean a external graphics card via thinderbold?
I just had a look at the prices and god damn, it’s almost as expensive as buying a full computer. I think I will probably stick to a desktop computer instead.
