    i have a good idea of the options available but i'm looking to use my existing hardware instead of switching to a pi or fire stick. i was just hoping someone might have a hardware recommendation for an x86-64 libreelec system. or maybe if a legacy driver existed (i see it doesn't).

    after lots of googling and forum searches i haven't found a great list of supported video cards. i just snagged an amd 6450 for really cheap to put in my dell optiplex core2 quad machine. when i installed it i had a few visual artifacts that went away after a resolution change but now every video file or stream i play had a grainy texture to it (i changed dithering settings and limited color range to no avail and also tried every de-interlacing setting and post processing setting and it's still there.) and i can't help but wonder if it's a driver issue because of the dated card. so i guess i have 2 questions.
    1. any known solutions to this? maybe a legacy driver that works in LE9?
    2. if not what's a good really cheap card that should be supported going forward? (i read something about nvidia not supporting linux in the future)
    any advice is appreciated and thank you.
