Hello!

I've bought new parts and I am awaiting their arrival so I can build my brand new computer. I've decided to go for Arch Linux with KDE plasma or perhaps Gnome as my desktop environment but that's as far as I've come.

I figured I would ask the community if they have any tips or suggestions, thanks!

I will also be doing a lot of gaming and after watching and reading about Linux gaming, it seems you will generally lose about 10% FPS compared to windows. I also heard that Arch is supposed to be one of the better distros for gaming.
