Basically, I have a laptop (5800H/RTX3050) and Windows is irritating me to no end. I am thinking of completely formatting it and replacing it with whatever distro can give me the best gaming compatibility. For reference, I play - CS:GO, DoTA, Asphalt, and a little bit of Overwatch.

I was thinking of Arch since SteamOS is based on it but would like your opinion on it.

    Some rolling release might be good for driver updates, so arc si good for that or manjaro for easier use, but I guess it doesn’t really matter if hardware isn’t the cutting edge and even like mint might do and it might be a bit more stable.

      I have had instability problems with Manjaro. It’s basically still Arch but with the sharp edges rounded off and a fresh coat of paint.

      I recommend Mint over either Manjaro or Arch.
