Wait ?
You don't trust Nvidia because the drivers are closed source ?
I think Nvidia's pledged to work on the open source drivers to bring them closer to the proprietary ones.
I'm hopping Intel can catch up , at 32GB of VRAM for around 1000$ it's very accessible

For some workloads, the Arc Pro B70 actually does reasonably well when cached.
With some reasonable bring-up, it also seems to be more usable versus the 32gb R9700.
Nvidia has been pledging that for years. If it ever actually happens, I am here for it.
