    I have an older GPU (rx 470) and I play games that probably aren’t super new so my main concerns were mainly my tech literacy and fear of fucking something up xD

      I didn’t really do any CLI commands on nobara. So it’s pretty straightforward. I guess the best experience might be with AMD.

      I’m running a ryzen 7 and gtx 2080ti( I think ).

      It’s about 4 years old, but it still gets the job done. I’ve had no gfx issues. Nobara installed the nvidia drivers on its own.

      If you have a spare HD. I’d recommend giving it a try. I ran popos parallel for a short while to try out gaming.

      I was angry and leaped off the deep end. New OS and everything. I have a technical background so with google I probably could save my own ass :D

      RX470 is fully supported with the latest drivers. Anything from Radeon HD 7000 (GCN2) series from ~10 years ago and newer uses AMDGPU with (almost) all features available. GCN1 is experimental but also works.

      Older cards use the Radeon driver and miss out on Vulkan.
