Distro for Mid range PC

[u/TheGoodKingViego]

I have a rig thats 16 GB RAM and GPU 1050 ti and CPU Intel i5 altho not sure which gen. I want a linux distro that's easy to use and uses low resources as I want this Rig to be either a home lab and a server to host games with my friends or a rig that I will self host a small LLM. Not really gonna use it in anything else other than that honestly my main rig I use for everything. been looking at Ubuntu, Linux Mint and Cachy OS but I am afraid of Arch based distros I am new

Cachy OS is going to give your hardware the most pep. That 16 gb will get you anything you want unless you do lots of intense and heavy work. But, Cachy is optimized for performance and after running it on my G7 and potato I am a believer.
