    Oh ok, but I’m comfused now… to me it looks they are actually providing an up to date proprietary driver.

    According to NVIDIA’s website the latest driver is v550.144.03. Listing the available drivers on Tumbletweed shows one can install v550.144.03.

    Are you refering to NVIDIA “New Feature Branch Version:565.77” ?

      Yes, he is and I agree with him. If you look at any other distro that tries to cater to gamers, you will see that they use the new feature branch for the very reasons @DaddleDew mentioned. Outside of that I found that OpenSuseTW was a great distro that I could recommend to people…just not gamers on Nvidia. I ended up moving to EndeavourOS a few days ago and everything is running smoothly with the provided 565.77 drivers from the new feature branch. I might be back some day.
