Which GPU do you have? There are plenty of distros that work just fine with Nvidia.
GTX 1080.
Might be an issue with my setup. I run HDMI + DVI. My BIOS refuses to work with DVI for some reason.
Might detect it as two monitors, hence why it runs at full boost clock constantly. Didn't find a fix for it so just gave up and went back to Windows where it works just fine.
Also doesn't seem to detect DVI without the HDMI connected. Might be my GPU is faulty.
