I've had good experiences with my Nvidia card on Aurora (same basis as e.g. Bazzite), but HDR is indeed still an issue.

I haven't had any issues with my 3070, and HDR works fine on kde-arch

i feel like desktop nvidia cards are ok, laptop nvidia cards are a nightmare because of the weird igpu/dgpu shit under the hood

That's why I chose a laptop without iGPU, because only one GPU means less hassle.

Guess what: the Nvidia drivers aren't setup for laptop dGPUs without iGPU. It's horrible, even worse than my last laptop with two GPUs.

And the battery life is ridiculous.
