I just picked up a cheap older gaming PC with a GTX 1050 and and Intel I7 CPU. Trying to decide what distro to load on it for gaming. Curious that others experience is gaming on various distros.

The pop shop is ass, but you can install the cosmic store and it works wonderfully (cosmic is the DE in development by system76).

Unfortunately I already left Pop! for Fedora when I updated my GPU. I needed something with an updated kernel anyways and Fedora played nice with it out of the box.

But man, I still am surprised when I open up software and it just... loads with no issue.
