Fortunately, this fucking windows partition I only keep for VR with my shitty Oculus Rift CV1 reminds me how fucked up the alternative is. I can’t fucking wait to get a Steam Frame and ditch it.

    I never had a issue on Windows with swapping a GPU since before xp.

    Just installed a 4070… I did go to the website for the latest driver, but Windows supplied driver auto detected resolutions just fine. I was done in fifteen minutes including physically swapping card

    I hate when people write lies like this, it makes Linux look bad.

      Yep, never had a single issue swapping GPU on windows. First time on Linux, I went to the Nvidia website to download drivers. Apparently that’s the worst thing you can do (?!) and it took me hours to undo the mess.

      Don’t get me wrong I still use Linux daily but there’s no need to lie. It has some sharp edges and GPU drivers is one of them.
