Same with GPUs. Man as an amd owner I also want to play with the cool AI kids without hassle

Honestly, it's probably more worthwhile to rent a GPU on the cloud rather than buying one for this purpose. Unless you are either working with AI or doing something serious with it, it's likely the better (and more cost effective) option either way. Hardware for training is fairly cheap.

Yeah. I’m currently using google colab but it is sometimes a bit of a hassle.

I’m currently planning to resume using it and maybe I will get a cheap second hand card by pure luck.

I bought Nvidia for the AI packages that support their GPUs, but I'm not happy about it. I would have much preferred to go with AMD.
