    nvidia-dkms has never not worked for me. Arch wiki has more info in the nvidia page.

    If this laptop is your friend’s main laptop, I’d recommend going for something other than arch or at the very least preparing before going into it

      We’re thinking in the possibility of using debian only for games, because he’s been using arch for almost a year and a half and he likes it very much, but we could prefer having the drivers working on arch directly for convenience
