I am using Ubuntu 19.10 now, but I am not the thread startener. > Some years ago I got a nvidia 1050 and tried for month: Mint 18, Mint > 19, Manjaro - no success. Oh yes, some years ago. Some months ago with Ubuntu 18.04 a GTX 1030 was slower(!) with opencl, but now the 1030 is faster, about 2x without opencl, while the 1660 is about 10 times faster with opencl. Of courese this depends on the test scenario. I used the testfile bench.srw from the phoronix test-suite. It also depends a lot which nvidia-driver you use. It worked without problems, when I installed the nvidia-driver during installation, if I installed it afterwards I got mixed versions. > I got openCL playing in each of these configs but it stopped working > after the first suspend-to-ram.

That's true, while the bios-version can be very important, especially with a x570-chipset.
