I wouldn't consider 2560x1440 a convinient resolution for watching movies,
given they tend to be 1920x1080 these days.

I had enough problems with ATI video cards under linux in the past that
I don't even try anymore.  Somehow they just never seemed able to write
reliable working drivers for any OS no matter how good their hardware was.
Maybe they have got it better now.  No idea.  They do seem to have some
open source driver stuff happening which is at least something, although
given the size of some of the dumps they do, it makes you wonder if
anyone outside can even contribute to it at all.

I don't know that particular HP.  Might be OK.  I have always built my
own desktop machines from parts although not lately given I haven't had
a reason to upgrade in almost a decade now.  I think I may have gone a
bit overboard on the last upgrade.
