These days I was wondering what laptop GPU would be the easiest to maintain / simplest to configure from a laptop POV?

Considering NixOS (I see Nix as gentoo++) or arch.

Onboard Intel/amd? “Discrete” Intel/amd/nvidia?

Would prefer open source but am not Uber passionate (results > means).

Fictional use case is mid tier game development - ray tracing is nice but stability and minimal effort to keep stable while pushing decent amounts shader/polygons is more important vs peak perf/px. No bitbro / artificial guess.

Experiences & recommendos?

    Have got an Nvidia quadro in my laptop, Wayland on Nvidia still kinda sucks but if you run the DE on integrated graphics and intensive stuff on the GPU it works a charm
