so i have been having many freezing issues and i assume they are from running vulkan on a driver with only opengl support, i know my graphics card is capable of running vulkan and it it supported by nvidia but none of the drivers in my drivers manager contain vulkan support. this thing has been causing me issues for sometime with freezing and issues from steam when almost everything else on my linux desktop works perfectly like i tested running 12 tabs and they all worked fine lmfao so yeah please help me install vulkan, my full system info is linked here and inxi -Gxxx:

jagged jetty
why did you choose 570 if the recommended is 535?
the 535 causes more freezing from my testing
experiment with 565 then
jagged jetty
experiment with 565 then
couldnt install it
exit error 11
your GPU is too old for 570
535 is best
jagged jetty
535 is best
doesnt work in my case as well as the 570
same with the 470
