I am considering to build a desktop pc for 3d modelling and some rendering, mostly still images. Not interested in AI/crypto stuff, where apparetly most progress is focused. How should I think about it? Does it still make sense to avoid Nvidia? Maybe even second-hanf market is worth attention now?

Nvidia still has a lead on rendering performance. Of course vram will be quite important as well.

Nvidia drivers do work.
