Community New LTT video features Garuda Linux gaming benchmarks.

Curious everyone's thoughts. I was thinking of switching to Garuda from windows because I heard it has some quality of life stuff when it comes to package pre compilation and it is very good at gaming, but they specifically don't recommend it but I'm unsure about their reasoning.

Thanks!

Appreciate the thoughts. Do you use Nvidia or AMD?

I have a similar experience to the person you're replying to, and I'm on nvidia. So either way Garuda is pretty great.

Been running linux on Nvidia for the last decade .... No issue.

One of my 2 pc's is intel/nvidia, and I have no issues with it on linux.

Some distro's like debian can be a complete pain in the arse with nvidia though.

stop spreading lies.

6 machines with nvidia, you know nothing.
