I just want more NVIDIA support. My first attempt at switching to Linux for gaming was not a smooth one.
I kept having an issue with my monitors freezing. Any community suggestion made just didn't work at all. It was as if the monitor not only froze but was just turned off. Any UI Element would freeze up and then suddenly my Cursor would only work on the only remaining monitor until that would stop as well
I couldn't for the life of me figure it out. Tried 2 different OS's same issue. Was told by the community it was because I had an NVIDIA GPU, 4080. Which is fine except the 2 OS's tired both had the same issue. I just gave up.
They all have distros with native nvidia support, need to get the right iso
