Wish I could play games on Linux, but for some fucking reason I can't figure out my gaming laptop with Nvidia 1660ti will not work properly with most games. If I ever can afford a new computer I'm probably going with AMD instead tbh.

What's the output of nvidia-smi? If it's a newer laptop you might need to add a machine owner key so that secureboot will allow the required dynamic kernel modules to load. In debian the module will be signed with the dkms signing key, adding it as a MOK is fairly simple. https://wiki.debian.org/SecureBoot#Making_DKMS_modules_signing_by_DKMS_signing_key_usable_with_the_secure_boot

*Try disabling secureboot first, if things start working re-enable it and follow the advice above.

what distro are you using? I never had any issues on my nvidia build with nobara

Optimus? Because Optimus is an absolute bastard. It's improved and I've had some luck, but it's painful.

If your game run terribly on Wayland, try running in on X11, and vice-versa.
