Nouveau drivers should work with newer kernels or what? Because honestly I could not give a shit about dlss and such stuff. Pure raster for me please
Basically yes, Nouveau drivers should work with basically any kernel... I think. Its been years since I tried to run linux on an nvidia GPU, but basically they should work.
No clue how they will performance compare to Windows though... every body I'm aware of that does detailed linux gaming benchmarks, they don't use Nouveau, because AI UpSlaLInG! Cutting edge graphics!
But yes, try Nouveau, might work for your situation.
