If I had a dollar for every time the Nvidia driver screwed me over I still couldn’t order anything with it because my graphics driver wouldn’t load.

    Can confirm anecdotally. Put Bazzite on my Intel laptop, works like a dream. Couldn’t install any distro - any - on my PC running a 4080. Had other friends test it and they couldn’t either. Switched to AMD, zero issues just like Intel. What do I need a superpowered card for when most of the games I play are from 2016 anyway lmao

      Intel is almost flawless, I say as someone who uses an Intel A750. It does have a bug where putting load on the GPU causes a dramatic increase in latency for GPU compute tasks, but that’s mostly only important for VR. Flatscreen games work great.
