If you decide to go with another gpu, better wait some time, new cards
from nvidia and amd are comming soon. If you don't want to go with new
cards - I am sure older one will be cheaper. With nvidia there is
problem with some hyperv options, if nvidia detects it doesn't allow to
boot VM. But there was some way around this.
Btw, I have R9 290 (also Hawaii) and since I started using ovmf, I never
had reset problem with my gpu.
