Sigh, guess I have to get serious about gaming on Linux then. I wonder if the nVidia drivers still locks up my boot sequence.

If you have an Nvidia GPU don't switch to Linux, especialy if it's a pre-Turing model. If you have a Turing+ GPU though wait for a year until NVK is actually usable, then look into it imo.

There was one game (ECHO) where I had weird performance issue on Windows but not on Garuda. The game is not CPU bound i think. If someone has an explanation as to why this is happening, don't hesitate to tell me : https://piped.video/watch?v=ODL-jpZgy_M
