Hardware Recommendations

This page aims to make buying recommendations for problematic hardware. Old or unavailable hardware is to be removed, and the list should be short. Best case would be one device that is good, cheap, and available in all countries. If this doesn't exist, there may be different recommendations for different countries and/or different price categories. Every price is to be provided with a date in the form YYYY-MM-DD. Mentioned devices should have great out-of-the-box experience. If there are no devices with great out-of-the-box experience, there might also be devices mentioned that require as little tweaking as possible. Tweaking steps are to be mentioned in these cases.

Just buy AMD, and you will be fine. If you buy old GPUs, look for Vulkan support.
