Last time I used AMD GPUs for GPGPU all it took was running hashcat to make the desktop rendering unstable. I'm sure leaving it run overnight would've gotten me a system crash.


That's always happened with NVIDIA on Linux too, because Linux is an operating system that actually gives you the resources you ask for. Consider using a separate video card that's dedicated to your video needs. Otherwise you should use MacOS or Windows. It's 10x slower at building code. But I can fork bomb it while training a model and Netflix won't skip a frame. Yes I've actually done this.
