My first thought was definitely to install Linux lol. I've switched my last computer over recently, no regrets. I do everything on Linux. Gaming, work, productivity, software development, and I have run into basically zero issues that I couldn't quite quickly resolve, except for a single stubborn bluetooth controller that worked for a few weeks then stopped working ever again (could even be a hardware issue, IDK) but I just replaced it with a $10 usb from Amazon which has worked perfectly ever since.
