It looks like it’s not using a driver. Maybe install the nvidia-470-xx packages from the aur. Also install the 32 bit packages to game. Hopefully, someone will come along and confirm or deny this shortly.

No driver makes no sense, but nothing about this whole process makes any sense, so there’s that. 43 whats this? LOL. I have no idea what that even means to give you an idea. Typically, I just fresh install and try again, I’d like to learn what’s what here, but I feel like maybe just a fresh install, as I have no idea anything about what you just said outside of no driver lol.

Typo - 32 bit

Thanks corrected :blush:

It was meant to be 32 :rofl: I can’t type!

Anyway run

yay -Syu lib32-opencl-nvidia-470xx lib32-nvidia-470xx-utils opencl-nvidia-470xx nvidia-470xx-settings nvidia-470xx-utils nvidia-470xx-dkms 

And reboot

So I installed the 470dkms and here’s the result of that… Looks different anyway

I think maybe try the 390xx version from the aur.

nvidia-390xx-dkms
nvidia-390xx-utils
nvidia-390xx-settings
lib32-nvidia-390xx-utils
opencl-nvidia-390xx
lib32-opencl-nvidia-390xx

Edit: This is what Nvidia shows.
