Windows 10: Drivers OK for Gigabyte Radeon RX 5600 XT GAMING OC-6G???

I would like comments from owners of this Gigabyte 5600 XT card about driver stabililty. I'm building a new rig based on ASUS ROG Strix-E and AMD 3900X. I was all set to buy this card https://www.newegg.com/gigabyte-rad...814932244?Item=N82E16814932244&quicklink=true and https://www.amazon.com/GIGABYTE-Gra...rds=gigabyte+rx+5600+xt&qid=1584976015&sr=8-2 until I read all the really negative comments on Newegg and Amazon about drivers. So should I buy this card despite the negative reviews, or buy a different 5600 XT card? Or should I use my ancient GTX 660 until AMD releases good drivers?

Here is the thing. I'm not a gamer, but I do work all the time in Adobe Lightroom, which is now using the GPU for some intensive tasks (e.g. Enhanced Details). I also use Adobe Photoshop and Acrobat, and Microsoft Office programs a lot, Outlook, Word, Excel and some PowerPoint. One of the review comments said that he had an issue with Word.

I honestly don't know what to do here.

I have used both nVidia and AMD (ATI) cards over many years. I have usually prefered nVidia's drivers.

It appears that an nVidia RTX 2060 is a close match to the 5600 XT in performance. Not a lot more expensive, at the low end of its price range. GeForce RTX 2060, New, Desktop Graphics Cards, Video Cards & Video Devices, Components - Newegg.com

I would have suggested a 2060 Super for the latest hardware, but the price premium seems a bit high.

I wouldn't worry too much about brand. eVGA may have the best customer service. My current card (2080 Super) is a Gigabyte. Can't be clocked much above its factory overclock. I don't overclock (except for a little testing).
