On the other hand I have a laptop with Intel and dedicated Nvidia card. Longterm ongoing heat problems (one heat pipe, one cooler, bad placement, thanks Dell) killed the Nvidia card.
Windows couldn't run anymore and couldn't be installed again.
With linux the laptop works again, at least with the Intel 3rd generation card.

You guys can get them to actually work???? Im counting myself lucky if the majority of games I try even start to begin with.
Its a distro agnostic problem too so I cant even jump to somewhere else to mitigate it.
