With the OpenGL vs. Vulkan data out there, while having this Ryzen 5 1400 box with Ubuntu 18.04 running these RX 560 and GTX 1050 Ti cards, I took the opportunity to run some of the newer Feral games too that are Vulkan-only, in case you have been thinking about an RX 560 Polaris or GTX 1050 Ti Pascal...

F1 2017 is playable with either of these graphics cards at modest resolutions and settings though the performance tended to be a few frames higher using the GTX 1050 Ti over the RX 560.
