I'd rather have a cheap new board to test my stuff on.
Saves $$$ that way

Thank you for the suggestion though. :)

Instinct aren't cards for gaming. Not worth it mate.

Just buy the 1650 Super. It's going to work well enough with that Xeon CPU of yours.

There's debate on how easy they are to make stable.

As with other Vega cards, undervolting is highly recommended, which only works with FE vBIOS and a single "KMD_IsGamingDriver" registry entry (set to 1).
FE requires soldering (or driver modification which nobody as figured out, as far as I know) to maintain display out after drivers load.
Mine has been largely disappointing with culling errors, artifacting, and crash, especially when not underclocked/undervolted.
