I don't have numbers, but I've seen comments/reviews that suggest they're all within a percent or two in terms of frame rate. Like, how much thought should someone put in to getting 101 fps instead of 100 fps, you know? After using Mint for a bit, I'm probably going to stick with this for a year or two before trying out other distros, if I even feel the need. I think there is also value in giving a couple of them a try as you learn more.
Can I easily switch distros or is it like installing windows again where everything is lost?
It's kinda like installing windows, but the process is way faster during the actual install, and the initial setup. The OS is much smaller and took maybe 20 minutes to install after I got my partitions set up properly. After Linux is booted up, every program I needed to get going was easily located in the built in software package downloader. I didn't have to go to NVIDIA's website to download drivers because they were already accessible from the built-in driver manager. Telegram, Steam, and whatever popular software you want is just a quick search away and a button click from being installed as a flatpak application. Firefox was already installed. It didn't ask me to log in to a Microsoft account before I could move on to using my computer.
Wow so there’s open NVIDIA support for Linux Mint? That’s a big plus since I have a 3060
From my understanding, there's definitely driver support all the way around. I have a 1070 in my laptop, so it's old enough that everything is probably about as developed and compatible as it can be. Theres an open source driver available, but most people say to simply stick with the proprietary Nvidia one, which is what I've done. The OS/driver manager should pick out the most stable and best tested release version for your system. I would guess all the distros can use the Nvidia drivers just fine, it's just a matter of getting it installed one way or another, if the distro doesn't have a driver manager. I'm just the newbie, so, I don't have a lot of experience.
