To be fair, AMD does offer good long term support for cards, just not with ROCm.


The 390.x driver series (updated 11/22) supports cards that are at least 13 years old[0]. From a quick glance of available drivers for AMD cards of that vintage the drivers haven't been updated since 2014/2015.

When comparing the last driver release from Nvidia in the 2014-205 range it supports cards going back to at least 2004[1].
