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

i had to reinstall nvidia drivers, no need to recompile the kernel. if you are thinking about mkinitcpio -P, that is not allowed in Garuda

i solved it by creating a symlink with prime-run steam, which i heard forces the use of dedicated gpu

It says latest gpu setup attempt failed at Xorg pre-start hook Here is the log:

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

I use Ecosia and Duckduckgo. Searxng only if i need all possible results, since this is much slower than the other two

Anything is high end compared to my gtx 1650

Depends on your workload. If you watch movies and game, ultrawide. If you do streaming or web development, dual monitor is like a must. Oled and hdr are also supported, stable on kde and gnome, experimental on xfce. Dual monitor is supported by these, plus cinnamon, mate, lxqt, budgie, pantheon and many window managers. I myself use a 15" laptop bc im poor

9070 is high-end

The kernel supports it already? That’s fast

Cromite

I think making it source-aviable and distributing it for a request after a verification would be the best for very powerful and dangerous software. GPL is also a good license, but if you upload it to a git site, every script kiddie will install it and use it for their funny business

more Blink-based browsers could have been included, there are some even there that are pretty good in privacy and security: top pick is Cromite (can be ran as portable, no install required, inbuilt adblocker based on editable blocklists, very agressive on tls certificate validation (more than anything, including librewolf), native userscript support, datetime and viewport size randomization on each website (i don’t know any other browser that can do this), changing http referrer policy and more). Other recommendation ks Thorium (it is made by furries, has some google stuff in it, but it is open-source and constantly updated, though not as fast as cromite, that updates weekly),and Iridium, Falkon

displayport is dtill there hopefully

no such thing. just go for the cheapest. buy an rfid case when you are not using wireless networks, to avoid triangulation. Or buy a Fairphone/Librem 5/Shift6mq/PinePhone, those have hardware buttons to disable data receivers, but they cost a lot more than any other smartphone, but shouldn’t be a problem if you can afford Samsung or Apple

neither of them are aviable for android

that’s desktop only
