RX470 and RX480 are quite nice cards for Linux workstation. Support for 5 displays, and most importantly great opensource drivers. I am buying couple...

Any AMD card is really. RX6600's are 2x as powerful as rx480s, and are approaching 200 dollars. Dunno about their workstation ability though
My PowerColor Fighter RX6600 works completely fine on Ubuntu 22.04. No stability issues at all, and even ROCm works. The GPU itself supports 5 simultaneous displays but the card has only 4 outputs: 3 DP 1.4a and 1 HDMI 2.1
Well, I’m saying it may not perform for workstation workloads as well as nvidia cards, because cuda, but I also dont know how well supported workstation/pro features are with nvidia cards on Linux.
Older kernels may not work with newest AMD cards. Some old Debian stable, CentOS and so on. RX 480 is sure bet!
