Maybe here is a good place to ask. I have used Mint for months now on my non-gaming laptop. I like it. I was ready to move my gaming rig at months end. Then I read that it can have issues with multiple monitors at different refresh rates and also with Mouse acceleration. Is this true and is there a solution?

My gaming rig has been on arch and manjaro for the past 6 years. No regrets. Sometimes games can be a pita to get working right, but proton/steam/valve have done an amazing job and it's better every day.

I have a 2.5k 34" uktawide and a 27" connected. No issues.

It's a case by case scenario.

If it works for you, then it's all good.

If it doesn't, then you might see the need for having a Linux PC and a Windows PC for different use cases.

X11 does not support different refresh rates across monitors.
You need a Wayland capable DE for that. The big one is Gnome.

Don't use gnome especially with Wayland. Plasma > 5.27 has awesome Wayland integration. Try fedora tumbleweed

That's such a weird comment considering gnome has been the on the forefront of wayland's implementation from the get-go and KDE's is still experimental.
