gollark: I don't know about the performance of PRIME versus GPU switching, but it's definitely more convenient.
gollark: You should just be able to get nvidia drivers from your distro package manager.
gollark: The speakers also work fine, as does WiFi, the keyboard, trackpad, etc.
gollark: Anecdotally, my device (2020 Legion 5 with the i5-10300H and RTX 2060) works fine under Linux. People spoke of backlight issues, but it works fine for me. I'm using the hybrid GPU mode with PRIME (https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/PRIME#PRIME_render_offload).
gollark: Thanks. I'm not on Windows but might use this if I ever end up installing it instead for whatever reason.
