It is something to keep in mind when you purchase your next card. I'll always choose a smooth experience with mainline drivers over 10% more raw power. (And it's incredible how much AMD GPU driver support has progressed over the last few years, going from the total clusterfuck that is Catalyst to everything just working out-of-the-box.)

Clusterfuck? I just installed nvidia-driver and it sets itself up.

Catalyst is AMD's previous driver: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/AMD_Catalyst
