You're talking about Arch Linux there though which definitely isn't for the average user, and again you're needing to use the terminal.
I'm very competent at using the terminal myself and have installed Arch Linux from the base image before but it's not exactly user friendly.
As I mentioned before though, Windows does install some quite recent NVIDIA drivers automatically via Windows Update. And if you don't want to use GFE, you can just go to the NVIDIA website and install the latest drivers that way.
- WD-42 5y agoOK, replace a single terminal command in Linux with opening the software app, searching for Nvidia, and clicking install. This would be the user friendly process on pretty much any mainstream distribution for getting the latest drivers. Having to navigate through Nvidia's website, create an account, and download a bunch of bloatware that takes forever to install is barbaric. Calling Windows user friendly is a meme at this point.
