so my old GPU died a few days ago and I was thinking which brand of GPU to get next. AMD or Nvidia? I've heard Nvidia drivers are very annoying with Linux but I've never had an AMD GPU before. Which would be better? I'll sometimee switch to Windows to play specific games as well.

    Not Nvidia, they do not play well with Linux. I've had all sorts of weird problems that I've traced back to driver errors caused by Nvidia, both proprietary and open source.

      If you do already have an Nvidia GPU, may I suggest trying Bazzite? They have an Nvidia spin that solves a lot of those problems.

        Thanks I'll give that a look. Everything is working well right now but I'm sure it will all break again when I finally update to Luner Lobster.
