They go in increments of 50.===gpu series===NVIDIA GPU Series: RTX, GTX, And GT*GT cards are low end, not for gaming*Anything that says GTX is designed for gaming*As of 2018 NVIDIA no longer uses GTX as the main series name for GeForce cards intended for gaming*RTX is the new designation for cards designed with gaming in mind. They are better performers than older GTX cards*RTX cards have ray-tracing capabilities which is better for realistic rendering of shadows, light direct and reflected and so on*Ti seperates two cards of the same generation and tier in terms of performance. RTX 3080 is slower than RTX 3080 Ti. === model numbering===Prefix number: The prefix number indicates the generation/series. higher prefix == newer cardGTX 970 has a nine at the beginning, indicating it is from the 9 or 900 series. The RTX 3080 has a 30 at the beginning, meaning it is from the 30 or 3000 series.Suffix number: The suffix number indicates the GPU's performance tier. The higher the number, the faster the card is.* 10 or 30 means weak tier. (i.e. GT 710, GT 730, GT 1030).* 50 means entry-level tier (i.e. GTX 1650, GTX 1050, RTX 3050, GTX 950).* 60 means above entry-level/mid-range tier (i.e. GTX 960, RTX 2060, GTX 1060, GTX 1660, RTX 3060).* 70 means mainstream tier (i.e. GTX 970, GTX 1070, RTX 2070, RTX 3070).* 80 means high-end tier (i.e. GTX 1080, RTX 2080, RTX 3080).* 90 means enthusiast-level tier (i.e. GTX 690, RTX 3090).===legacy===ATI's naming convention is similar. Their card numbers will relate to the different markets that they are aimed towards. The ATI naming scheme has changed over the years, this is their most recent. The first number in the name refers to the series of the graphic card. The next three will determine what market the card is aimed at.ATI's card numbers will relate to the different markets that they are aimed towards.

Radeon RX 6800 XT is considered a very good performance card. Radeon graphics cards perform well in Linux. Nvidia's Ampere GeForce RTX 30 series also perform well on Linux behind the RX 6800. Nvidia GeForce RTX 3080 is a good performance card in Linux.
