This is why I don’t update Nvidia drivers unless there’s a fix I need. If it’s stable, that’s all I want.
Until the GPU cooks itself anyway, because nvidia can’t admit their new power connector was a mistake.
I’m wanting to switch my gaming PC to mint from Windows. I’m new to Linux, that’s why I’m going with mint. What GPU should I buy for my use? (RTX is not important to me. I just need it to play my games well)

I had a ton of trouble getting my R9 390 working on Linux, so ymmv
I think that card fell right in the gap when the switch from the older Radeon driver to amdgpu happened (or sth. across those lines, I sometimes see that exact architecture needing some love to run nicely). Didn’t had any issues with anything from RX 550 upwards ever since amdgpu became the default.
Ah, that would make sense. Too bad I had to upgrade to Nvidia since I do 3D modeling.
What does 3D modeling have to do with that?
Some people “I don’t care why it doesn’t work, it’s Linux’s fault!”
It’s really ironic and embarassing. The most valuable chip manufacturer in the world, thanks to advances in AI and AI research, which is usually done using Linux systems. And yet Nvidia still sucks hard when it comes to Linux support.
