I'm not calling anyone jerk. I just don't like that every discussion involves 'nvidia bad' on here. That, to me, is a circlejerk. And repeatedly summing up the situation as 'nvidia is so bad, don't use it' puts people off from making the jump and consequently doesn't help the growth of linux in general, which doesn't help you, me or anyone else.

Your nvidia information might be outdated since driver version 560.x. And I'm getting tired of the anti nvidia circlejerk in the Linux communities on lemmy.

At least Shadow of the Tomb Raider (+20fps) and Cyberpunk (+5fps) run better than they did on windows with the same settings, for me. And those are the only games I tested, because they are the only AAA titles I own that come with a performance test.

I'm not defending nvidia here, there are still issues like missing multi monitor vrr or a few (!) titles that are too broken to play. And it's not as much of an out of the box experience as it is with AMD.

But for most people that own an nvidia card it's probably already a good idea to make the switch from windows.

So, to anyone owning a nvidia card having doubts: feel free to try things out!
