    I have an old ASUS laptop with a 670M on Windows 7, any prayer the jump to Linux for drivers will be smooth? 🤞

    I have an i914900KF desktop on windows 11 (I have to use it) and loathe the OS lol. Definitely wish there were programs for chopping down Windows 11 spyware crap.

      with a 670M

      Your GPU doesn’t support latest drivers, and older drivers are a nuisance.

        Unironically, the best bet for them is nvidia 540xx drivers on the AUR with an LTS kernel.
