Hi @Salvodif,

I’m guessing you don’t have the correct GPU drivers installed. Please see here:

Configure Graphics Cards

You might also glean something useful from the ArchWiki:

• Nvidia

Additionally, if your BIOS has such an option: Look for PCI-E Speed (or similar) and change it from auto to gen4 or gen5 (whichever may be applicable). This may help once you have your Nvidia driver properly installed.

Cheers.

Nouveau driver installed. Last I heard that is 30% slower than proprietary driver. So I didn’t even bother with it. It’s been around for years, open-source driver.

There is an open-source effort going on called NVK but it is still early days. NVK — The Mesa 3D Graphics Library latest documentation. Idea is you only need Mesa like on AMD. Much easier to deal with.
