Can anyone share the state of modern Nvidia cards on linux nowadays? I was looking into building a more modern gaming/rendering rig and AMD GPUs are way more expensive than Nvidia here. Reddit provides contradictory information.
Ideally I'm interested in how well the 5000 series works on Wayland setups in normal distros like debian.
I am able to get mine running on Kubuntu. I have a Lenovo legion s7 slim laptop with a mobile 3060 GPU. I would not choose Nvidia if I could (can't afford to replace my laptop), but it is possible in theory to get them working, just finicky. From my understanding it has become a lot better in recent history though. Nvidia says the latest drivers (I think the version is like 580) is compatible with pretty much all modern Nividia GPUs (so like 3xxx series and up).
In general, mine work fine. Sometimes Linux won’t switch between my CPU and GPU for graphical rendering when I start a game. Seems to be sporadic and changes whenever I update Linux. In general, I just force the GPU to render all graphics as a workaround, but that wouldn’t do well for the battery on a laptop. I also think it’s something my distro doesn’t handle well, but others do better.
