EDIT: Thank you for all tips, it has been solved. The solution was to reinstall nvidia drivers, reboot, and force umu proton for the game. pls share, so others can solve it more quickly

no, Garuda doesn’t have this by default, i had to set up prime

Different distros ship updates in different pace and optimized for various use cases

Make sure you choose an arch-based distro, you need the latest features, fixes for nvidia. I dualboot garuda and windows 11, and garuda has better performance on a slower ssd. They recently released a new major release

just search ut up on youtube, there are many great summaries about what is it.

Rhino. it is a new, but very promising distro, ubuntu based and rolling, which is great for gaming

specifically my biggest beef was with dnf. Very few packages and uninstalling stuff is pretty hard that is not installed with it.

i tried Fedora 40 lxqt in vm, and it was a huge disappointment. openSUSE kde and Garuda KDE are much better. However, my laptop as it seems is totally incompatible with linux kernel, due to its highly propriatry hardware. MSI Gf63 Thin 9sc

i heard intek gpus suck on any system

i heard it runs horribly on most devices, and it isn’t even linux-specific
