Hi!

First, I'd like to apologize for asking the age-old question yet again.

I'm running Bazzite right now with a 50-series nvidia, and have no real complaints. I did manage to bork up coolercontrol pretty nicely, though, and am going to use it as an excuse to try another distro (and update my m.2 while I'm at it).

My knowledge level is not terrible, but I prefer spending more time gaming than tweaking.

Thanks in advance for any replies!

Personally I chose Pop for the same reason, I don't want to sit there tinkering for hours. They have a version with nvidia drivers already baked in, everything worked out of the box. Installed Steam from the popshop (which does flatpaks) and took off from there.

    Its how I installed pop on my desktop. Not my favorite distro, but it works out of the box with my hardware.

    I tried to install some other flavors, the screen was color challenged. After some research I found I would have to adjust a text file. I was not doing that. I was impatient that day, and wanted it to just work.
