If you are only doing gimp then I would just pick the cards than can handle the monitors you want, or at least one say 4k 30"+ tv that has similar real estate to 4 x 1080's. The nvidia's work well for video work (built in encoder and decoders that is much faster than the cpus) and games and such,

Anyone successful build a homebrewed kernel on F32

In lvm context this dm-1 is a magic device-mapper device/file that sets up a block-mapping to the underlying device that allows access to the blocks of the specific lv in the correct order (in this case home). It really acts just like /dev/sda1 does if there is a filesystem directly on /dev/sda1.
