My old 4790k finally died, and I need to replace both the CPU & MB. I was wondering if there would be any conflict in having an AMD CPU and an Nvidia GPU.

I want to use Bazzite on it. I’m running the same distro on my main rig and I’m very happy with it.

Any suggestions?

    You may also need to manually reinstall the driver after kernel updates.

    As with any module installed outside the kernel. If you install it via your package manager is should setup dkms to handle that for you.

      Doesn’t always work, at least on Fedora. On Fedora, it builds the kernel after the package is installed (so you need to wait 5-10 mins before rebooting) and I guess it doesn’t work properly sometimes. I’ve had it happen twice in a few months. It does work properly sometimes though.
