OS: CachyOS GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Board: MPG B550 GAMING PLUS CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 3700X (16) @ 4.43 GHz Memory: 31.26 GiB

i try to keep it short: i have issues with some games (like the witcher 3) and often hear that its an issue with nvidia drivers etc…

So my question is: would a switch / small upgrade to a AMD Radeon 6800 be worth it?

    CachyOS is gaming focused though, their GUI has a button to install their gaming meta package. they also package their own Proton which shows up in Steam as a compatibility option.

    cyberpunk at least seems to run noticeably better for me on CachyOS than it did on Win11, on exactly the same hardware (5800x3d, rtx 4080)

      Ah, well, I don’t know then. Sorry, like I said, I know nothing about CachyOS… but it wouldnt hurt to try, regardless, since switching from nvidia to amd would basically be easiest with a reformat anyway.
