Hey there, I have this massive problem with performance issues, as can be seen in this post I made on reddit in the sub linux_gaming with the title probably going to switch back.
A fellow redditor made me aware of the fact that there should be a driver installed. Here is my inxi -G output:
Graphics:
Device-1: NVIDIA GA104 [GeForce RTX 3070] driver: nvidia v: 525.60.11
Display: x11 server: X. Org v: 21.1.6 driver: N/A resolution:
1: 1920x1080~60Hz 2: 1920x1080~60Hz
API: OpenGL v: 4.6.0 NVIDIA 525.60.11 renderer: NVIDIA GeForce RTX
3070/PCIe/SSE2
How do I install one? Or dont i need one?
Launch Manjaro Settings Manager, Open Hardware Configuration for starters.
I have the nvidia-video driver installed. That should be all i need, right?
Driver is installed. Maybe inxi doesnt detect the xorg driver correctly. Check you xorg log… must be:
/var/log/Xorg.0.log
That can’t be the complete output. Are you fully up to date? What version of inxi
do you have installed? You should have 3.3.24.1-2. Also check the optional dependencies to enable more capabilities.
Here’s mine for comparison:

Device-2: NVIDIA GA106M [GeForce RTX 3060 Mobile / Max-Q] driver: nvidia

You already do.
