I've generally tried to avoid Nvidia cards because binary blob drivers are a pain (especially as a FLOSS developer I occasionally need to build newer kernels). I believe the recent firmware changes mean the nouveau driver can now control clocking but I've no idea what the status is for CUDA which I assume you need to run the models.
They do look pretty affordable though ๐
If you go for it and need any help lemme know I've had good results with Linux and Nvidia lately :)
