I removed it by installing Linux

Honestly, I would switch to Linux if it didn't take so much time to learn. I've messed around on a Raspberry π 4th gen board, but have no real experience. To really make the Linux jump, I'd need a tutor or something.

Also I don't know which of my games will be compatible.

I finally switched to Linux as my daily driver (gaming, browsing, watching stuff) a week ago. Admittedly I have been using it at work for a few years.

  • I chose Pop!_OS as a distribution, because it supposedly streamlines nvidia driver hassles and I wanted to give it a try
  • Installed the OS, Discord, Steam, no problems
  • Installed and played Raft, Vampire Survivors, TW Warhammer 3, Outer Wilds, no problems and no additional config needed

Just to add a voice to the positive feedback! If you have a spare computer or hard drive, I absolutely encourage you to try it out!
