It’s become known to me that as of late, basically every game works on Linux. This is becoming even more prevalent thanks to the steam deck I assume.

I’m totally ready to make a system image of my windows as a backup and install Garuda ( Or some other distro if a better case can be made) and give it a go. Is there anything I need to worry about?

Ryzen 7 7700

32gigs ram

RTX 4080 GPU

4k HDR monitor

cheapo 1080p side monitor

Thanks for any help or advice.

    Try fedora, something with newer kernel, in a year switch to nixos

    Just use a secondary SSD. You can get sata SSD’s for basically nothing, just get a small one and install your distro on that.

    And as others said, I wouldn’t use Garuda first. Personally I’d just recommend fedora for your first go.
