I have 1065 Ti without any issues. The nvidia not compatible is outdated and they started playing ball recently by working on open source drivers. Nvidia is huge in the AI space and AI computing is pretty much 100% Linux.

There are gaming issues though on Linux in the form of anti-cheat systems, but other than that running things with Steam Proton just works although specific games that use obscure windows APIs might not be as performant.

Dirt 3 used the NTsynch for the NTFS filesystem and once it got fixed the frame rate saw a massive jump for example.

Long term people are supporting Linux gaming a lot more since it’s already 3% of the playerbase and requires pretty minimal effort for added 3% audience to make Steam Proton play work. Also with the release of the Steam Machine 2026 is going to be the Year of the Linux Desktop™
