If you have an AMD GPU and use Steam it’s mostly plug&play these days.

I have an Nvidia GPU and I don’t want to waste my already limited gaming time trying to make the games run smoothly.

I also have an Nvidia. It’s still plug-n-play. Everything runs fine.

Jam Mint or Pop OS on there and you will never in your life have to worry about a kernel to game. Not even once.
