I am running Ubuntu Studio 20.04.3 LTS and run a few games on Steam. Recently I have found that my games have all switched to lowest res, if they work at all.
I am running an Nvidia Geforce 1650 and have freshly installed the latest drivers, which is 470 at the time of writing.
Output of lshw -C display

I am very new to linux but it looks like it is recognising the hardware and also recognises the nouveau driver.
I have set the Software Updater to use the proprietary driver. Screenshot below:

And I have set the NVIDIA X Server Settings to Performance Mode. Screenshot below:

But still when I try to play games, they do not find the videocard. Below is a screenshot of the settings menu of Divinity 2 (running on proton). Intel 630 is the only option available for graphics.

Please let me know if there's something I'm missing. Your help is appreciated!
Thanks,
