I recommend that you boot your distro of choice from USB and see if it works for you.

You might be surprised.

If it doesn’t work with one, try a different distribution.

I’ve used Linux with nvidia cards and didn’t have issues, but I am not very demanding.

Take snapshot. If problem occurs, manually change boot label to use snapshot label.

BTRFS is zero effort on root, because it is included in kernel. ZFS on root is extra effort at least on Arch, due to licensing restrictions.

Dedicated gaming machine or dual boot is a way to go.

I played steam on Arch and one update of OS and game stops working.

Despite claims, Windows gets better outcomes. I played a lot of World of Tanks Blitz and the same hardware on Linux was significantly lower graphics quality and FPS compared to Windows.

Total is $398 bundle with lower end fan. It is comparable.

The choice will be driven by hardware characteristics for me. Power vs performance questions. If performance is roughly the same, then I will prefer lower power consumption.

A few years from now we may be seeing US tariffs on these just like EVs today.

China is developing fast and it took US trade war seriously.
