List of NVIDIA models and related NVIDIA driver packages to install

Hello,
I'm testing my Arch Linux machine (Linux Zen kernel) with NVIDIA cards. According to the Arch Linux wiki related to NVIDIA at https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/NVIDIA

In this page, it shows specific NVIDIA driver packages to be installed for specific NVIDIA models/families. The list of NVIDIA families can be retrieved at https://nouveau.freedesktop.org/CodeNames.html

Now, according to the Arch wiki, we have that:

For the Maxwell (NV110/GMXXX) series and newer, install the nvidia package (for use with the linux kernel) or nvidia-lts package (for use with the linux-lts kernel) or nvidia-dkms package (for all other kernels).
If these packages do not work, nvidia-betaAUR may have a newer driver version that offers support.

Alternatively for the Turing (NV160/TUXXX) series or newer the nvidia-open package may be installed for open source kernel modules on the linux kernel (On other kernels nvidia-open-dkms must be used).
This is currently alpha quality on desktop cards, so there will be issues. Due to nvidia-open issue #282, it does not work on systems that have AMD integrated GPUs.

For the Kepler (NVE0/GKXXX) series, install the nvidia-470xx-dkmsAUR package.

For those families that are not shown here, for example NV130 family (Pascal):

Code name	Official Name
NV132 (GP102)	NVIDIA Titan (X, Xp), GeForce GTX 1080 Ti
NV134 (GP104)	GeForce GTX (1070, 1080)
NV136 (GP106)	GeForce GTX 1060
NV137 (GP107)	GeForce GTX (1050, 1050 Ti)
NV138 (GP108)	GeForce GT 1030

which NVIDIA driver packages should be installed?

You can also use nvidia's driver lookup page to see which versions support your card.

Do you mean the page like this https://www.nvidia.com/Download/driverR … 214/en-us/ ?

What part of 'and newer' isn't clear, though?
