Why have you ruled out a system with an integrated Intel GPU?  I've been
quite satisfied with the integrated Intel GPUs for quite some time.
They work well with the compositors in Xfce and GNOME.  They don't seem
to have any issues with XScreensaver's 3D modules.  This is the extent of
my 3D experience as I am not a gamer.

My main desktop is a Lenovo M73 i5 based tower and I've had it over
seven years bought as an off-lease model.  The GPU has two ports and
supports dual monitors without issue.  When I read all the torment
people put themselves through with Nvidia, I just shake my head.  As far
as I'm concerned Nvidia is banned from my network.

Yes, I do have non-free firmware packages installed.  I can't say that
they're strictly necessary.
