[Question] to Linux from Windows as a daily driver - Lemmy

My plan is to buy an NVMe today, install linux as a dual boot, but use linux as a daily driver, to see if it meets my needs before committing to it. My main needs are gaming, local AI (stable diffusion and oobabooga), and browser stuff. I have experience with Mint (recently) and Ubuntu (long ago). Any problems with my plan? Will my OS choice meet my needs? Thanks!

My only serious gaming experience on Linux is with Steam Deck and its SteamOS which is based on Arch Linux. So I cannot really make a firm recommendation. But for local AI and browsing, I have been using Ubuntu (plus its derived distros). I think it is a good starting point for anyone switching from Windows.
