Thinking of switching back to Linux. I was running PopOS about 1.5 years ago and was pretty happy with the gaming aspect of things, but I was playing a lot of VALORANT back then, and I got sick of dual booting. That is less the case now, so I would like to try going back to Linux for the majority of my gaming / streaming setup, and just use Windows for the handful of games like Destiny 2 that won't run on Linux.

I am fairly new to Linux. Don't mind learning some terminal stuff, but I am basically a noob so it does need to be pretty easy to start with. Got a NVIDIA 3080 and AMD CPU if that matters at all.

Recommend me a distro please fellow penguin gamers.

I've had Nobara running on my gaming PC for over a year and it's worked fantastic. I was using Fedora previously but was having some issues figuring out how to get Blender to properly utilize the GPU for rendering. It worked seamlessly once I made the switch to Nobara.
