I tried to use fedora and openSUSE for a while, but that their support for some games is not good, it’s not game compatibility issue, it’s an issue with NVIDIA driver, i tried to run Minecraft java, but for pre-installed Mesa driver can only provide 30%~FPS, for RTX 4090 Laptop it’s almost the default setting = 60FPS, i tried install official NVIDIA driver, but due to laptop MUX, performance is still only 90% of windows, and the game often crash, i tried to find a solution but it all didn’t work, so i think i need a linux distro with nvidia closed source drivers pre-installed and laptop friendly, finally i found Pop! OS, it feels good to run it from USB, it let my gpu to provide windows like FPS and stability, but i haven’t installed it on my disk yet, because im not sure if this is the final solution, guys have any better suggestions?
Just stick with Pop!_OS, it’s not a terrible option.
okay
yes pop os is known for supporting nvidia gpu out of the box and supports gaming.
Install it on disk ! don’t think.
in Opensuse i had worst experience with nvidia gpu , partly because its a rolling release .
(disclosure i have never used popos myself 
,but feedback are nice )
I’ve had quite a few issues with pop os and nvidia. I’m not saying it’s a bad option. What I’m saying is that it may not be the panacea that you might expect it to be
I recommend Bazzite. Works great.
ok, i’ll try it
I have been using EndeavourOS (Arch) with Nvidia card in my custom built PC, and it has been quite good. Another friend of mine has been using it with Arch, and hasn’t had a crash. I rarely game on it, but I often push the card to its limit with LLM fine-tuning. I have played Minecraft on it, and it felt smooth. Are you using Wayland or X11?
wayland, but i don’t think arch is a good idea
Wayland is very finicky with Nvidia and by the look of things, it’s just a cesspool of issues that will take way more time to solve. Especially with electron based apps, I can’t recall how many times I have to reboot because VSCode starts to flicker.
I would say EndeavourOS is nicely situated between Ubuntu and Arch, I was using it with Gnome earlier, but have switched to Hyprland and boy oh boy, I regret it at times.
P.S: Endeavour gives the option to install nvidia closed sourced driver at installation time.
The best solution is to avoid NVIDIA because, let’s be honest, they’re assholes.
Unfortunately, we can’t. Those GH200 are such beasts that I am in love with them. Even when I want to tinker with a couple of things locally, AMD’s ML libraries are just not there yet. 
for laptop, basically amd gpu suck for performance
