GPU Compatibility List

The purpose behind this page is to give a compatibility probability list, and to confirm these when possible.

I will break down manufacturers, then subsets. Audio, for the terms of this list, refers to digital audio from the card, typically HDMI audio. For further understanding of how audio currently works, please see the new audio scheme for possible resolution of audio issues without installing things you do not need. If your cards audio device shows up when typing "sudo aplay -l" (without quotes) then nothing more is required to install, only a configuration change is necessary, as detailed in the link.
