So I was thinking of switching my desktop to linux. I have been running fedora on my laptop for 3 years and I really like it. My main question now is just what distro works best for gaming (considering my specs) and can I use VMs in any of the gaming oriented ones (mostly because I don’t wanna keep dual booting).
Agreed. Mint is a very ‘new Linux user’ friendly distro, and has everything you really need. I’ve got some recent converts from Windows and even the gamers I’ve set up are happy with it.
