    Topaz is absolutely the best. There are other commercial software out there that’s talked up a bit but everything i’ve read says Topaz is still better. Free stuff, nothing really comes close. There’s this that i hope get’s better and more developer interest. Available on Linux and Windows

    https://github.com/TNTwise/REAL-Video-Enhancer

    If you’re Windows only, there’s this. It’s more mature in development

    https://github.com/AaronFeng753/Waifu2x-Extension-GUI

    But Topaz is better than everything else. It’s why I grabbed a used laptop with an Nvidia GPU for a good price

    The free stuff is real hit or miss with real life video. Animations generally always looks good

        I buy XFX. I think Sapphire is really well regarded. I feel like I had a Sapphire ATI card a long time ago. Pretty sure XFX and Sapphire are the major time tested brands. You can probably be good buying the cheapest brand though
