Wayland's Wild Decade From v1.0 Release To Usable GNOME/KDE Desktop Support

240Hz works fine on Fedora Workstation.

With GNOME I suppose

Until it starts working with nvidia cards, wayland will remain an unusable joke

Until Nvidia follows proper standards and stops screwing around in Linux their cards will remain an unusable joke.

There, fixed it for you.

No it doesnt.

Your issue is using NVIDIA

There is simply no alternative to Nvidia for performance, feature set and efficiency. Whether you like it or not, this is the fact .Maybe your iGPU or your Radeon HD5870 is enough for your use case, but for most people there is no alternative to Nvidia hence until wayland supports it, it will remain a silly joke.

I've been using GNOME Wayland for the last year or so and it's fine with only one crash I can remember.

Yeh, the thought of session instability potentially causing me to loose work is a frightening thought, but they've done a pretty good job of fixing the crashes.

For low end and midrange AMD is comparable or better. For high end you should be either on Windows (gaming) or not care about display at all (server).

iGPU or Radeon HD5870

So you need to compare to a 10 years old AMD card to say NVIDIA is better? Cool story bro.

Can you elaborate? because i have an RX570 8Gb + Ryzen 5 2600(got it like dirty cheap few weeks ago) and basically there is no game i cannot play maxxed at 1080p60(not going to 4k until mid 2020 when monitor go a bit lower in price), also got full video de/encode acceleration working like a charm, vulkan(RADV) works like a boss, undervolting with WattmanGTK works flawlessly, got working OpenCL-1.2, etc. Outside CUDA i don't get what you mean ...

The fact that you think graphics cards are only for gaming means we have nothing further to discuss.

If your RX570 suits your needs then good for you, but dont pretend that its anything other than a low/mid range offering or that it can compete with 9/10/20 series nvidia..

(server)

but ok, keep your secrets I guess.

Well, i don't get the pretend because it is a mid range card, so... also i think you mean 2000 series card because this card with my current voltage tweaks destroys the 980ti and most of the non super 10 series which are mid range as well and AMD have cards that compete fairly well up to the 2070, from there i agree nVidia reigns alone.
