Asked By QuantumPenguin42 On

I'm new to building gaming PCs and I'm setting up my first one with a Ryzen 7 7800X3D and an RX 9070XT, planning to run Linux. I've had a little bit of experience with Linux from a bioinformatics class, but honestly, I'm still a Linux newbie. I've been looking at a couple of distributions for gaming: Garuda and Bazzite. I've heard that Bazzite's immutable structure makes it a safer choice for beginners, while Garuda might offer more opportunities to learn and experiment, which I'm actually interested in. I also read that Garuda might handle HDR better in games, but Bazzite's Steam Game Mode looks pretty convenient. I'm not sure which one to choose, so I'd love to hear your insights on the pros and cons of both!

Since you've got an AMD GPU, you won't have to deal with Nvidia's drivers, which is a plus. I’d suggest going with either Fedora KDE or Bazzite—it's a safe bet since both offer good support for recent drivers and stability. Also, KDE is great for customization and supports HDR well, but you'll find the similar experience with Bazzite too.

I’d say try to check out either Nobara or CachyOS as well; they’re good options too! But if you decide on Garuda, just remember that you can always backtrack if you don’t like it. Exploring different distros is part of the fun!

Bazzite is based on Fedora, which I use for gaming—so it gets my recommendation. It simplifies a lot of things for newcomers, especially with its easy driver installation.

If you’re leaning towards consistency and less customization, Garuda might not be the best fit, since it's heavily themed. If you want something more bare-bones, consider another Arch-based distro for less customization while still learning.

I tried Bazzite for a bit before moving on to a different distro. I haven’t personally used Garuda, but honestly, both options are pretty solid for gaming. Just pick whichever one you feel more drawn to!
