My old machine died, and i'm preparing for a new build.  as alway,
I'm confused about our supprt for video cards.  I thought I had
been told we support GeForce GT1080 series but turns out that that
doesn't work.  So, what is the "best" supported card?  I need one
that has hdmi output.

I'm sure it is far from best, but I installed a GT730 (nouveau)
and it works great.  all my previous complaints of instability
are gone.  I'm a happy camper again, modulo getting back on the
net. I'm hoping that the US$2- nic fromm walmart will work.
