My budget is little, I have to stay within 150euros: I'm orientated to the
AMD RX560 (4GB) or to the Nvidia GTX 1050ti.
If I look at the various general or "gaming" benchmarks, I find that the
1050ti is faster than the RX560. But if I look here (

I see that the RX460 (and I assume also the RX560) is faster than the
1050ti. ...

You need OpenCL, i.e. at present a proprietary graphics card driver. I moved from openSuse to Ubuntu because of the AMD driver. Fedora should also be possible.

I use Darktable 2.2.5 with the AMD RX 460, running with Xubuntu 16.04.03.

The card should be about 120 Euro, pay attention to the type of RAM on the card.

Propriatary driver:

The AMD opensouce driver with any distro is well supported and should be sufficient for most of the work.
