    Yeah, I don’t buy nvidia for this exact reason. No amount of performance matters if the drivers are broken

        Last nvidia gpus I owned were water-cooled GTX 670s in SLI back when I ran windows. Ever since then I’ve always chosen AMD or intel, because of the in-kernel drivers.

          I see, yea those cards are extremely bad supported by nvidia and are only usable with nouveau in my opinion. But nouveau got pretty good, and was the first GPU I owned that worked with wayland well (have an old MacBook for funnsys running arch with a nvidia at about that age)

          But the “newer” cards (like rtx stuff) are working very good with wayland now in my experience (rtx 980 in my Desktop)

          But in kernel is still way better, 😌 nvidia driver updates always take so long to install
