      Linux desktop works fine as long as you have 10 years experience, buy all new hardware, and dig deep on sketchy looking forums to download random drivers to work!

        the we bit clearly implies you don’t think anyone should use nvidia gpus on linux but they have over 85% of the market share according to steam hardware surveys so clearly that’s a problem with linux if it doesn’t work well with nvidia gpus yeah nvidia should be less awful but people say linux “just works” now and yeah sometimes it does and currently even on nvidia it does if you’re using xorg works fine for me on cinnamon mint other than the fact I had to figure out how to upgrade the kernel which wasn’t super obvious how cause my bluetooth didn’t work cause my motherboard was too new but you can’t just stick your head in the sand when certain hardware has issues especially popular hardware there’s a reason nvidia gpus are so popular as terrible a company as they are and as overpriced as their gpus are amd is constantly behind every new feature they announce on their gpus is just a worse implementation of what nvidias had for a year or 2 I wish amd was good I hate nvidia but if you wanna play the latest games with the best graphics amd is just no good unfortunately

          It works but the performance is worst compare to Nvida on windows, I was loosing 10 to 20 fps not to mention that it had some issues with v-sync. I literally was having screen tearing on a 144hz monitor that had g-sync. That’s why I chose to get an AMD gpu when I upgrade I also got a 240hz monitor with freesync and now I actually see either better performance compare to windows or the same!
