In the end the new GeForce RTX 4060 graphics card ended out just slightly above the Radeon RX 7600 in terms of overall performance. The Radeon RX 6000/7000 series on their open-source Linux GPU driver stack continue to perform very competitively with the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 30/40 series and their respective proprietary driver stack. Thanks to the work by AMD, Valve, Red Hat, and other parties on the open-source Radeon Linux driver stack the Linux gaming scene continues to become quite vibrant while NVIDIA also continues providing their first-rate binary Linux driver support on Linux that remains in excellent shape largely due to the shared driver code-base with Windows.

Wdym, I run plasma-wayland on 1660 without issue.

Open source drivers or proprietary ones?

[-] DrRatso@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 year ago

Prop of course. As per google nvidia has official wayland support since 2021

I know what Google says, but I tried it a few months ago and nothing worked properly, I just assumed the version was still beta. But it could be because I'm using a laptop and Optimus cards have always been sort of a hit or miss with features on NVIDIA.

FWIW I've recently mograted to wayland on a 3060ti without any real issues. I'm running hyprland. There were some minor quirks to resolve during the initial migration, all were well documented in the install guide and trivial to resolve.

I had no problems on Nobara, also running wayland and have no problems on arch.

For nvidia i have nvidia, nvidia-utils and nvidia-settings packages, DRM KMS and nvidia “experimental” settings for suspend, hibernate and preserve memory enabled.

For KDE i have plasma-meta and plasma-wayland-session.

HW is Two mixed refreshrate monitors (144 and 60Hz) on 1080p, GTX1660 and ryzen 5 3600.
