To leverage the full potential of your graphics card on Linux Mint 21.3, it's essential to install NVIDIA drivers and the CUDA toolkit, which enhance performance and capabilities.
Before installation, ensure that any existing NVIDIA drivers are removed using the terminal commands 'sudo apt-get purge 'nvidia*'', 'sudo apt-get autoremove', and 'sudo apt-get autoclean'. This prevents conflicts.
Adding the official graphics drivers PPA with 'sudo add-apt-repository ppa:graphics-drivers/ppa' allows you to access the latest stable NVIDIA drivers for optimal performance in Linux Mint.
With a GeForce RTX 3060 as an example, the installation of NVIDIA drivers is crucial for maximizing GPU performance in tasks such as gaming or media processing on Linux Mint.
