# NVidia
|
|
|
|
NVidia is a vendor for graphics cards.
|
|
|
|
## Setup NVidia GPU
|
|
|
|
### Arch Linux
|
|
|
|
For NVidia GPUs to work install the `nvidia` and the `nvidia-utils` package.
|
|
If you want to easily configure the monitors as described in a later section of
|
|
this file you can also install `nvidia-settings`.
|
|
|
|
There is no initial setup in for of a `xorg.conf` in `/etc/X11` needed
|
|
(except for a multiple GPU/APU setup).
|
|
|
|
## Change monitor configuration
|
|
|
|
After running `sudo nvidia-setting` can drag and drop the monitors to your
|
|
liking.
|
|
After that you have to save the configuration to the `/etc/X11/xorg.conf`.
|
|
|
|
## Avoid screen tearing
|
|
|
|
To avoid screen tearing open up `nvidia-settings` and under
|
|
`X Server Display Configuration` select your display.
|
|
Then click on `Advanced` and select either `Force Composition Timeline` or
|
|
`Force Full Composition Timeline`.
