Suggestions for a distro with a nvidia 50xx (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

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!

Honestly, switching to amd is a better solution than trying to shoehorn a device into an ecosystem who's creators aren't aligned with it. Nvidia and their GPUs continue to be this giant sore spot for Linux all because of Nvidia's choices. Continuing to contribute to their monopoly and anti consumer practices won't be changing anything either, but folks eat up the hype for their over priced crap because tech YouTubers tell you to.
