I want to replace Win10 on the desktop system I mostly use for gaming. It is an older system with an Nvidia GeForce 1050ti gpu in it, which from what I found, should not be a problem. I was thinking about going with Ubuntu since it is well supported. I was interested if anyone has any opinions about this. I am also going to try and dual boot it with the Win10 for now. I purchased a new SSD drive just for Linux.

You could give Bazzite a try! https://bazzite.gg/

I'm greatly enjoying their other flavors as well for my laptop and desktop rig.

I'll second Bazzite. I tried Pop!OS and had a handful of problems with it, but they all evaporated when I switched to Bazzite.

Bazzite is my favorite for gaming as well. I liked it better than nobara

I had a couple hiccups, but it's been working well for me with a Nvidia card on my laptop.
