Fortunately, this fucking windows partition I only keep for VR with my shitty Oculus Rift CV1 reminds me how fucked up the alternative is. I can’t fucking wait to get a Steam Frame and ditch it.

    I switched from Nvidia to AMD with no issue. It probably wouldn’t be as easy the other way around though.

      Yeah it also depends on how you installed the drivers. Some methods are super easy to uninstall but others are catastrophically complicated.

        I never bothered to remove the Nvidia drivers. The kernel won’t load the kernel module if it doesn’t detect the card, and the gl/vk loaders correctly load the right implementations for the new card, so i never saw a need to remove them other than an extra download and dkms step when I do an update.
