Best Desktop Distro for Gaming? (lemmy.world)

I currently run windows 10 on my main desktop PC, and also have a steam deck that I sometimes use in desktop mode instead of my desktop. With the way Windows is going, and the way Linux Gaming is dramatically improving, I might consider ditching Windows, at least for the most part, on my next PC build. What would be the best distro to use for gaming, with casual use as well? Any suggestions?

Pop OS has specific Nvidia settings as well. Works pretty good on my work laptop, though I don't have gaming experience with that combination.

My own pc is and only and runs pretty good with Pop OS, in some cases better than Windows.
