I want to make the move to Mint at the end of Win10 in a week or so, but I’ve heard some horror stories about how tough it can be to get Nvidia GPUs working with them. As it is I have a 4060TI and no money for an AMD GPU. If I can’t get my GPU working with Linux I’m probably gonna end up having to stick with Windows untim I can afford an AMD GPU, the thought of which doesn’t exactly excite me.
To be clear, AMD has much less performance loss if any. In some cases surpassing the performance in Windows on those same games.
So is it the game’s fault? Mostly no. The performance gap is not due to poorly written games, it’s about:
Games that are poorly optimized on Windows will also mostly likely perform badly on Linux.
