I have a 128GB Ubuntu (18.04) USB that I have on my keyring so I can take my files, programs, OS, etc. with me to any computer and it works great. One thing that annoys me is screen tearing. The computers I use the flash drive on most do have Nvidia GPUs, but some don't. Would installing Nvidia drivers cause issues while on non-Nvidia PCs?
Checking my answer, I see that my experience was a little out of date,
I now see that Nvidia is smart enough to check if there is a Nvidia graphics card present before loading the driver.
Have not checked with an AMD computer yet.
Alternatively the drive is fairly large, you can dual boot the same OS, but only install Nvidia drivers on one of the installs.
You can choose which install to boot depending on the computers graphics card.
You can share a /home partition between both OS so the only difference in experience between installs is the graphics quality.
