just take a look at these pages and see if you are missing a driver or something
i have a similar setup so the drivers i have are
nvidia-open (nvidia works too)
lib32-nvidia-utils
mesa
lib32-mesa
vulkan-radeon
lib32-vulkan-radeon
nvidia-open for linux
nvidia-open-dkms for any other kernel(s)
``` would I need these?
what are you using for nvidia rn
GeForce GTX 1660
nvidia is the proprietary one nvidia-open is the open source one
no i mean the driver
just nvidia
