How well does proton work on Nvidia GPUs now days?

I'm really tried of windows as a whole and would like to get away from that ecosystem. There's really nothing keeping me there other than I've been told gaming on Nvidia is still way behind, but that might have changed

Up until recently I was using a gtx 1060 just fine. Not sure about the high end ray tracing stuff though.

I'd say give it a try, I had a great experience. Never had any proton issues with an nvidia card my self. Just keep in mind nvidia drivers on Linux are notorious for being bad. If you choose an LTS distro or one that packages the drivers you'll be fine though. Pop!_OS LTS with the nvidia drivers is what I ran.
