My laptop is an Acer Aspire 3 A315-55G. it has:

  • (CPU)Intel i5-8265 processor
  • (GPU)Nvidia mx230 2gb
  • (RAM)8GB

Is it advisable to move to Linux with a graphic card like that? Does the drivers give problems?

There is a really simple answer to this. Try it out! Simply download the desktop image of the Ubuntu version you want to run, burn it to a USB memory stick and then boot from the stick. Boot in to "Try Ubuntu" and, if its boots successfully, you can install Ubuntu on to your disk.

Two points:

  1. Don't do this with a server image! That does not have a live version.
  2. Make sure you click on the Try Ubuntu and not Install Ubuntu.
