<!-- SC_OFF --><div class="md"><p>I recently purchased a Lenovo IdeaPad 5 15ITL05 laptop and I installed Arch Linux on it. On my old laptop [Acer Aspire E1-571G] I used Nouveau and didn&#39;t care about NVIDIA drivers. It was working OK. However, with my new laptop I&#39;m not sure if it&#39;s the right choice. I feel that the closed-source NVIDIA drivers might provide me with a lot more features than Nouveau. Which graphics driver do you suggest that I use? Nouveau, NVIDIA, or NVIDIA Optimus? What other useful GPU related apps should I install on my laptop to get the best graphics experience?</p> <p>&#x200B;</p> <p>P.S: This is the output of <code>neofetch</code> on my laptop:</p> <pre><code>CPU: 11th Gen Intel i7-1165G7 (8) @ 4.700GHz GPU: NVIDIA GeForce MX450 GPU: Intel TigerLake-LP GT2 [Iris Xe Graphics] </code></pre> </div><!-- SC_ON --> &#32; submitted by &#32; <a href="https://www.reddit.com/user/i8ad8"> /u/i8ad8 </a> <br/> <span><a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/archlinux/comments/ppftpf/nouveau_nvidia_or_nvidia_optimus/">[link]</a></span> &#32; <span><a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/archlinux/comments/ppftpf/nouveau_nvidia_or_nvidia_optimus/">[comments]</a></span>
