    Dualbooting with nvidia atm. Using other drivers than the nvdia one in linux. Most things work except a few games. Highly recommend it

      Word.

      I ran a dual boot setup for about six weeks, but the performance issues and bugs just got too annoying over time.

      I’m planning to get a new PC later this year for gaming. Just gonna wipe windows off this one and make it my “all other stuff” system when that time comes. :)

      I waited to install Linux until I put in another drive to dual-boot, and proceeded to never go back to my windows install.
      I was surprised at how easy it was to get things running, and any difficulties I had were mostly the result of me assuming things were more complicated than they are and not looking for simple solutions.
