    It only saves your sanity if you have a full AMD build. Otherwise, you better be an IT pro or have the time and inclination to do a lot of learning. Nvidia drivers are notoriously problematic with Linux

      Not anymore. I’d say there has been massive improvements in the last 3-5 years for Nvidia. This was one of the main reasons I didn’t swap over sooner.

      Nvidia hasn’t been an issue for like 10 years.

      It’s super easy to install either the open or proprietary nvidia drivers on most distros nowadays.

      And KDE with Wayland works great on nvidia GPUs.

        Stopn taking. There are regular NVidia issues. I don’t even get reliable HDMI handshakes and HDMI passthrough doesn’t work.
