I have an old ASUS laptop with a 670M on Windows 7, any prayer the jump to Linux for drivers will be smooth? ๐Ÿคž

I have an i914900KF desktop on windows 11 (I have to use it) and loathe the OS lol. Definitely wish there were programs for chopping down Windows 11 spyware crap.

with a 670M

Your GPU doesn't support latest drivers, and older drivers are a nuisance.

Rest of the system should work with iGPU, if you aren't interested in heavy gaming you can use Linux just fine.
