Not for quite a few games. Some lighter titles might get away with it, but not a lot.

Yeah, that's what I did. But it didn't drop to terminal because it was stuck on /dev/sda2: clean. At first I thought it hadn't booted at all. Frankly I think that was simply the last thing my monitor got from the GPU before it simply gave up. So i had to switch to TTY manually. That is my best guess.
It's quite an upgrade from my previous setup so I cannot tell you if it is good since my comparison is a 1050ti... But they've also made improvements to the drivers, even on windows as far as I remember.
I did and I am quite happy with the state of them. Also Linus himself is using a B580 so it can't be that bad (he doesn't game on it)
Honestly I would've much more appreciated it if they told me to RTFM /j (I already had) (I didn't pay the slightest attention)
This is the way. I will edit the text of the meme to show the solution at the top. As I had said to another commenter, I could've sworn I had linux-headers installed. This is why you check even if you are sure you have a package. Hopefully someone having this issue will stumble upon it randomly.
Thank you very much. I could've sworn I had linux-headers installed. Frankly, I might've had them on a different device for some other reason. This is why you check your packages kids.
Already bought intel. I am quite fond of the B580.
Yessir. I did remove everything that was from the 590 driver before I installed everything from the legacy 580xx. I might have to load a kernel module somewhere, maybe. But the effort is not worth the payout. My data on the machine itself is not unrecoverable thankfully.
I have ext4 and efistub, and the attention span of a squirrel.

I use ext4, but the fix was just installing
linux-headers. I simply was of the impression that I had already installed those. Most likely I had installed them on one of my laptops and simply just had that vivid memory still in my head. Once I installed them the problem solved itself after a reboot.
