Upon closer inspection, whatever you’re looking at probably has a discrete GPU, as there are no integrated GCN 4 graphics. Probably AMD 400 series? That’s not bad.
If you want buying/performance advice, you’re going to have to be more specific. Like what operating system are you looking at? Windows? Linux? What animation software? And ballpark what your budget is?
I ask because different things support graphics acceleration in different ways, or prefer newer CPU architectures, or don’t work well on Linux, or whatever. There are a lot of variables.
@brucethemoose@lemmy.world l suppose l'm more likely to get the Rx 500 series in the local market. I can't trust the product itself, unless l trust the seller.
@brucethemoose@lemmy.world ballpark is a perfectly new word for me. Anyways, l need to make my budget in ₹, not in $. I would be working on MX Linux, on xfce until l'm able to work on evilwm. It's going to be blender of course, and l'm going to use the blender 4 if not blender 3. And most likely Vulcan 1.2 of Godot. Not pretty much into 2026, but stick to 2020 items in my present phase. I was seeing that a bug's life was released in 1998, and if l can do something of that sort, l should consider myself more than successful 😃😃😃
