I'm looking for recommendations on a Linux distribution suitable for my Dell Latitude 7430, which has an Intel Core i7-1265U, 512 GB SSD, and 16 GB of RAM. I'm considering Linux Mint Edge, but I'm open to suggestions if there's a better option out there. My main focus is performance for video editing and 3D modeling. While I appreciate a minimalist desktop, customization isn't a priority for me.

Any major Linux distribution should work well on your Latitude 7430. Linux Mint is a popular choice for beginners due to its user-friendly design, stability, and strong community support. I've been using Mint for ages, and I think it's a solid option for your needs. It's easy to learn and fits perfectly for day-to-day use. Best of luck with your setup!
What kind of applications do you plan to run? If it's Blender, Kdenlive, Inkscape, and OBS you're after, you might also explore Ubuntu Studio. It's tailored for creative work and might give you the performance boost you're looking for!

Thanks for the advice! I think Linux Mint will be the one.
