I just bought a machine with an NVIDIA card which I am going to install Mint on. Do you have any advice?

(I had planned to get an AMD GPU, but was unable to for various reasons.)

Mint worked the best for me out of the other distros. 3060ti

Multiple monitor setup. One a 4k tv via HDMI others display port.

Had a helluva time getting it to not fuck the displays when one went on/off with anything other than mint.

Send it! I've heard it has gotten better for nvidia users. The nice thing about a live USB is that you can just remove it and reboot if you don't like it.

Pop!_OS has a dedicated .iso just for Nvidia hardware.
