so my old GPU died a few days ago and I was thinking which brand of GPU to get next. AMD or Nvidia? I’ve heard Nvidia drivers are very annoying with Linux but I’ve never had an AMD GPU before. Which would be better? I’ll sometimee switch to Windows to play specific games as well.
No idea about AMD but I have nvidia 3070 and works just fine. I use gnome for gaming and kde works well too. No settings changed, simple archinstall script with nvidia proprietary drivers and steam.
I’m not sure why but xfce multi screen gaming is problematic, haven’t dived into it.
Not saying don’t get AMD but nvidia has horrible reputation which is kinda unfair nowadays. Their driver has improved a lot.
That’s because you are on XFCE and they haven’t adopted Wayland yet, NVidia drivers sadly really struggle with that but it’s slowly getting better!
