No, I was thinking about amdgpu. amdgpu, the open source driver, since 4-5 years is better than nvidia closed source driver (excluding the cuda vs opencl/rocm debacle ofc).

fglrx has always been a terrible experience indeed, so AMD was no match for nvidia closed source driver.

So, once upon a time (I'd say 2000-2015) the best Linux driver for discrete GPUs was nVidia closed source one. Nowadays it's the amd open source one. Intel has always been good, but doesn't provide the right amount of power.
