My plan is to buy an NVMe today, install linux as a dual boot, but use linux as a daily driver, to see if it meets my needs before committing to it.

My main needs are gaming, local AI (stable diffusion and oobabooga), and browser stuff.

I have experience with Mint (recently) and Ubuntu (long ago). Any problems with my plan? Will my OS choice meet my needs?

Thanks!

    For Sure! Ubuntu has my favorite “default” Look & Feel, so it’s easy to get somewhere nice with it.

    Once you get your system stable, I suggest taking a backup and then playing around with some window managers. I’m stuck in Windows these days and I miss that the most.
