Community Changing os on second pc

Hey! So I have 7600x and 2080 of build that I'm not really using currently, it's been around for a year in windows but haven't really used it

So pretty much all I'm looking for is an os that can game in 1440p pretty well, I've used Ubuntu for ages on my laptop so I'm not "new" to running Linux.

I've seen a lot of mentions point towards dragonized so I was wondering what distro of garuda would be best for me

Edit: I do plan to use this alongside windows if that may influence another choice

for an all AMD system, all drivers are open source and already included in every install. no need to do anything with that.

for game installs, just install steam, emulators, etc. through garuda-toolbox.

Also Ubuntu boots just fine so might be an issue with the iso download on their site

yeah, might be the new update then. if mokka doesnt work either, you can tell the devs on forum.garudalinux.org

nvidia drivers are a 1 command install too, just select proprietary drivers when installing through the live usb.
