  • I was using a gtx 670 for about eight months after switching from win10 to arch two summers ago and it was suffering, especially with a triple-monitor setup with one being 34".

    The old drivers are really bad, I had to resolve conflicts for games, vulkan was sketchy, putting the monitors to sleep would reset window locations and monitor alignment etc. You will likely not run into many of these issues as you don’t game, but I also suspect these may not be specific to arch.

    I ended up pulling the trigger on a 9070XT and it’s been smooth sailing since. I’ll probably not do an upgrade again in the next ten years.
