Desktop, both Intel and AMD builds. And no, I just had multiple SSDs that I played with distros on.

Nvidia works flawlessly most of the time on desktops. The suckyness of their drivers shows its ugly head mostly on laptops.

And it's bad, crash your computer bad some times.

I guess I've been lucky with my laptop, although it is fairly old at this point.

Three laptops ago it mostly worked with FOSS solutions around the driver. Nvidia mostly killed them, and intreduced their own unstable solution. As far as I care, if they won't fix it before my hardware dies, the next laptop will have a GPU by another manufacture.
