I have a trauma-based personality disorder, which sometimes manifests itself in episodes of often uncontrollable bouts of verbal violence. I prefer to direct this to people on the internet (as opposed to actual people), as I don’t wish to be violent towards people I actually care about.
RTX 2080 Ti and CachyOS (Arch-based distro with an emphasis on gaming performance), most everything that should works out-of-the-box. I wouldn’t stress it, try a live USB first. Edit: also I’m using Wayland, which has been worse with NVIDIA than X11 that Mint apparently uses. So I’m pretty confident you’ll be alright.
