Sorry if I’m not the first to bring this up. It seems like a simple enough solution.

    I don’t even understand the pushback.

    I’m not shitting on nVidia or linux.

    I’m just pointing out the well-known compatibility issues that are evident if you spend any amount of time browsing a linux support channel, which would be the only solid argument for not buying nvidia cards en masse aside from pricing (or if you wanted to build a hackintosh), if the linux userbase was significant enough or if there weren’t other distros to choose from.

    Otherwise the vast majority of compatibility issues I see for pc gaming or emulation is in regards to AMD cards, so I wouldn’t bother buying one of those, no matter how much more affordable they might be. Just not worth the trouble when nVidia generally works as expected, or driver fixes are delivered faster.

    edit: unless it’s a game bafflingly designed around AMD, like Starfield apparently
