Struggling to Pick a Linux Distro That Works Well with Nvidia

Asked By TechExplorer92 On

I've been on a bit of a journey trying out different Linux distros like Mint, Arch (with KDE Plasma), Ubuntu, and Debian (which doesn't work on my PC for some reason). I had a good experience with Arch and KDE Neon initially, but found it tricky to install even the basic stuff, which led me to KDE Neon. However, I had to drop that too because KDE Plasma has some issues with my Nvidia RTX 4060 hardware. Maybe I'm just not skilled enough? I'm really looking for some recommendations for distros that play nice with Nvidia graphics but still have that cool, customizable feel like KDE Plasma. I could really use a break from Windows and would appreciate any help!

Have you considered trying CachyOS? I've heard good things about it being user-friendly and smooth with Nvidia setups.

You might want to check out Bazzite. It comes with the Nvidia drivers already installed and the latest KDE Plasma. You can manage your apps easily through the Discover application, just avoid enabling "game mode" if you're using it as a desktop environment.

Installing software in Arch can be a bit of a headache, especially if you're used to clicking through installers in Windows. If you want something easier to manage, maybe try distros like Manjaro that are based on Arch but provide a more straightforward user experience.
