The Nvidia drivers perform fine generally but it would be nice to verify it.
It's funny because you say that and at the same time it's the first question asked when someone has a hard time gaming on their Linux setup, "Nvidia GPU?", even in this thread it's come up.
The issue isn't performance, it's Nvidia's unstable drivers.
E: fuck me, are people stupid? Performance and stability are not the same thing.
Performance on Nvidia cards on Linux is fine. The issue is the bizarre issues you have like multi-monitor weirdness or adaptive refresh rate not working properly. Nvidia's drivers need kinks worked out but they aren't slower.
You realise that not having access to stable drivers is a performance issue because it means games don't run properly or at all?
"The issue isn't my bike, it's the bent wheels on it!"
Irrelevant to someone that wants their game to run.
I didn't say otherwise. We were talking performance, not stability, that's why I said the word performance, then said Nvidia's drivers were unstable.
Understand? Performance means performance and stability means stability. I can appreciate that might be hard to grasp, but they're different words for a reason, and that reason is they mean different things.
I don't know why I bother talking to morons on Lemmy who deliberately misinterpret what people say and use that as a gotcha. You're not smart for using a straw man argument.

Nvidia needs to sort their shit out.
