From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Nice! :D Mind sharing the model number? :D
Yeah I have a RX 7600. It wasn't brand new, but lightly used, bought it off a friend who upgraded. Paid around $200 for it, so I think a pretty good deal with current pricing.
Oooh! That is a nice deal! It wouldn't fit in this rig though, maximum thickness is 40 mm because the two capture cards "surround" it... π
I think the one I have is 41mm, so that would be a tight fit. Can't you rearrange the cards a bit to make some room? With only 40mm that would be hard to fit in any modern card.
The MOBO's expansion card sockets are placed in such a way, that I'd have to get an ATX chassi to be absolutely sure. π« Anyway, I'm trying out an ASUS GeForce GT 1030 silent tomorrow to start with.
