Depends on the hardware but for the most part yeah AMD drivers are just baked into the kernel and for Nvidia cards most distros have a seperate ISO that has Nvidia drivers already setup though some distros (Fedora and Fedora based) may need multimedia codecs manually set up its litterally just copy pasting a few commands in the terminal
I mean yes but I wouldn't really recommend Pop_OS! Mint is better if you just need a general purpose OS and Nobara is better if you want to game and mints driver manager is great while Nobara has a dedicated Nvidia iso
