Less a specific linux tip but look into Ventoy, it can carry multiple bootable ISOs and its just useful (reduces the amount of ISO Sticks to 1)

ventoy is awesome, my tip for OP is to always have a live usb in case of emergencies. you can just install ventoy onto a USB and drag and drop your bazzite ISO but having a live stick you can plug in and boot from at any moment is 100% a life saver. whether you broke something or you just wanna troubleshoot (think windows safe mode but better) you'll be glad you kept that USB lying around :)

Nice! I recently tried KDE Plasma and I’ve been really impressed not just with the polish but with the look and feel that still kind of reminds me of Windows without being Windows.

I've seen Plasma, Xfce, and GNOME. I like the last one the most, so I'm using it on all of my systems.

Curious about what you plan to play with them specs.

Runs pretty much everything in stable 60 fps, and I don't see any difference between medium and ultra settings

More specifically: DOTA 2, Pathfinder Kingmaker (took 4 hours to set this one up, and it's the SECOND time), Chrono Ark, 1000x Resist, They Are Billions, Mechwarrior 5 with friends, TTRPGs in browser, and some souls-like once I'm done with one of the listed games

Always make sure to remove the French language pack:

Linux is great but make sure you also have a secondary computer for if and when it randomly doesn't boot or won't update anymore. You can probably get a used laptop pretty cheap.
