Linux Mint still has problems displaying games after the system wakes from sleep for some reason. Maybe Bazzite or Pop_OS would work better?
As far as I know Mint and if things have not changed lately then Pop_OS as well has old kernel. Use distro with up to date kernel. For gaming a rolling release is usually a good option as the performance updates arrive early.
Well Mint still uses x11 and a forked mutter from 2020... so yes most likely.
PopOS with Cosmic did handle my odd 4 monitor configuration better than Ubuntu did.
