GeForce GTX 1660 Ti not working in Ubuntu 20.04

Hello,

I cannot install properly my GeForce GTX 1660 Ti in my OS Ubuntu 20.04. I installed all the possible drivers: 435, 440, 450… none of them seems to work. The system recognizes the GPU but no process is running on it. It is not a hardware problem because the GPU works fine in windows… This issue is really killing me… could you please provide help? Thanks in advance
