Fortunately, this fucking windows partition I only keep for VR with my shitty Oculus Rift CV1 reminds me how fucked up the alternative is. I can’t fucking wait to get a Steam Frame and ditch it.

Not when you’re changing GPU vendors. It can install the drivers, sure, but not remedy the obnoxious conflict between Nvidia drivers and AMD drivers when installed in the same system.
Don’t make me dig out the screenshot when I did exactly that and fucked my Linux install to the point where x11 shat the bed on boot and I had to abandon Linux until a few months ago
What conflict? I haven’t had issues like that in probably 10+ years.
Hell my one laptop has all 3 major vendors drivers installed and working simultaneously. Intel iGPU, Nvidia dGPU and AMD eGPU.
Not a “conflict” per se, but I know Nvidia drivers had an issue for years where it would waste a lot of CPU cycles if no Nvidia card was detected. I think that finally was fixed last year, though.
There are no conflicts. I run an AMD APU and Nivida GPU. Got drivers for both, zero issues. Sometimes I really wonder what you people do with your linux installs that cause so many errors.
When changing GPU vendors on Linux, you’ll likely run into some more issues as well.
Especially if you are going AMD -> Nvidia
Sure, but the comment was claiming Windows Update handles everything automatically. It doesn’t, especially conflicts.
