I use GTX 1660 Ti and I had some problems, but nothing of impossible to solve. I use Arch with zen kernel and nvidia-dkms with XFCE as DE. List of games that I play: Apex Legends, Hogwarts Legacy, Grime, Ironsight, Albion Online, Nostale with Steam. League of Legends with Lutris. Vampyr, Bioshock Remastered 1 and 2 with Heroic Game Launcher.
That's a good list of games. I almost exclusively play dota 2 and with valve's support of Linux maybe the risk is negiable, thanks for the reply :)
You definitely don't have to worry about Dota because it runs natively on Linux. I have a 3060 and it functions about as well as it did on Windows. For specific games, check ProtonDB or ask here
Dota 2 is definitely going to work. The only Games that havent worked for me personally are valorant and trackmania 2020, though the latter might have been due to the fact that my 1650 wasnt up to the job.
Ye , I think the list could be more large if I buy other games. Oh, I forgot Cyberpunk and Battlefield 4 and EA App through Lutris. The only issue I found is the compile of shader cache of Apex Legends and Hogwarts Legacy. It's a lot of time to compile.
