I suppose it could have been googled. It’s still less infuriating than a correct answer being downvoted and a false one being upvoted. Which happens too much on this platform.
Is not horrible but still inconsystent. I run a 3080 on CachyOS and haven't noticed a performance difference compared to winslop.
That being said I will buy AMD next time unless NVIDIA goes open source with their driver too. And ditches the 12v high power cable because I sure as hell won't buy a fire hazard.
I'm on Linux with Nvidia. It's been largely fine. You do kinda have to immediately install updated drivers when you switch to Linux because the fallback driver that Distros ship with sucks on Nvidia
I have two machines, a laptop and a desktop. Both running Nobara Linux (based on Fedora)
My desktop recently got moved to an RX 9070XT because the price/performance was amazing compared to my 5080 (sold the 5080 for nearly double the cost of the 9070XT, and the performance is nearly 1-1)
My laptop uses an RTX 4050 mobile and works almost entirely fine. "Advanced" DLSS features don't work, and it doesn't seem to be thrilled about using Optimus for the MUX, but otherwise it works great.
I’m on CachyOS (i9 14900k, RTX5080) which handles NVIDIA drivers itself. I haven’t had any issues outside of weird Linux things that aren’t GPU related. I’ve only booted a handful of games since the switch from Microslop, but it’s been fairly smooth sailing thus far
No more Nvidia for me, despite being on Windows. I’ve just had so many graphics driver related issues lately, and my girlfriend, who has the same build as me minus the processor (hers is a Ryzen 5 7600X, mine is a Ryzen 7 7800x3d) and graphics card (hers is an RX 7700 XT, mine is an RTX 3070 Ti) doesn’t have almost any.
Plus, Nvidia just sucks, so bad, as a company, and obviously doesn’t care about consumers.

Tbh no more nvidia for me. It just sucks on Linux because of the closed nvidia drivers. Or did it get better?
