Interesting. What issues are there with Nvidia? I was able to get the kernal drivers installed without issue.
I'm guessing you're running either the nvidia open source drivers (way worse performance) or you don't have graphics switching configured and it's using your GPU's iGPU (way way worse performance).
Bigger distros like Mint will probably configure that for you.
nvidia only very recently opened up their drivers to open source dev, so the open source drivers available right now are still based on reverse engineering and they don't work super great. there are proprietary drivers from nvidia but they are not easy to install and configure and popos handles that for you on install.
