I wrote an article on my switch to the gaming focused Linux distro, coming from Windows 11 and thought you all might enjoy the journey.

    struggling with Nvidia drivers

    Depends on your hardware age, and whether or not you use proprietary drivers. Some distros handle it auto-magically for you so you don’t really need to do anything and it just works.

    ultra fast GPU access to storage

    For the time being, nothing on PC actually requires this, or uses it optionally for any perceived I provment in fidelity. Its super cool tech though, looking forward to this in the future.

    HDR

    Fair point, it is actively being worked on by a lot of big organizations and developers, so it will get better. Last I checked Window’s support of it isn’t incredible, but its better than the nothing Linux has at the moment.

      The wall most people have is that they dont have a capable monitor to use it well (miniled with fald or oled) both fairly expensive.

      There are tips and tricks to get some applications working with auto hdr that was never designed to work with HDR (e.g you can get switch emulation with HDR with a name hack)
