The article someone posted yesterday said, you'd be better off with an AMD for the same price. At least for the 5 games they've tested under Linux with the current drivers.

  Nice. I'm also waiting for a cheap graphics card for doing AI at home. And the memory bus on the Intel card is wider than on the similarly priced AMD ones. But it'd need a bit more VRAM. And maybe I'll wait and see if it's just good in theory, or if the drivers or whatever limits the real-world performance, improve.

- Consider a third party shipping company, idk how it works exactly but at a place I used to work, they had a service called borderfree, you'll have to deal with customs costs, and prolly higher pricing, but I'm sure there is some kind of service out there that can accomplish this

  Customs here is easily 50% of the value, it's never worth it. Just gotta wait
