Be warned that the Nvidia open driver is considered "beta quality". Performance may be very slightly lower.

(Update to be incorporated: Nvidia has [https://developer.nvidia.com/blog/nvidia-transitions-fully-towards-open-source-gpu-kernel-modules/ announced in July 2024] that the upcoming version R560 will "fully transisition" towards the open-source kernel module. This means that the default kernel module installed by Nvidia scripts will be the open-source one. This is justified as the open-source driver is now as stable and performant as (if not more than) the closed-sourced driver. The new driver only applies to Turing and later GPUs; older hardware with Maxwell, Pascal, or Volta will still require the proprietary version.)
