Gentlemen, just for context, I usually use Linux. I have been a user of Debian, Ubuntu, and Fedora for a few years.

Recently, I acquired a decent graphics card (GeForce RTX 4070) and decided to uninstall my Windows and install Linux.

I saw that Pop!_OS already has an image with everything pre-configured for Nvidia. Is this pre-configuration worth it, are the games more stable on this distribution, or is it the same as manually installing Nvidia’s proprietary drivers on Manjaro?

      And after that you’ll be stuck with an outdated distro again

        What point are you trying to make?

        What is outdated with popos?

        drivers and kernal are pretty recent? Am I missing something?

          The software packages are old so you run into bugs that have already been fixed months or even years ago
