Linux gaming on an Nvidia graphics card (lemmy.ml)

So I've been a little wary of installing Linux on my desktop since I have a 1660 ti as a graphics card and read that there are some problems with drivers and such. Are my fears unfounded/outdated? Anyone experienced any problems and what Linux distro should I look to use for gaming?

I haven't played many intensive games on the 6650XT yet, but from what I found online the 6650XT is roughly equivalent to a 1080, slightly faster even.

That is great to know, thanks! I plan to use it primarily for programming, but I would like to have the option to play some games every so often.
