I'm thinking about getting a Lenovo Legion 5 laptop primarily for light to medium gaming and video editing. Here are the specs I'm working with: AMD Ryzen 7 2600, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5050, and 16 GB DDR5-5600MT/s RAM. Are there any specific Linux distros that would suit these specs and my intended usage?

Honestly, for gaming and video editing, you might want to consider sticking with Windows. It tends to have broader support for games and specific editing software. However, if you're set on Linux, distros like Pop!_OS or Ubuntu wouldn't do you wrong, especially with that NVIDIA GPU support. Just keep the video drivers in check!
Why do you think Windows is a better choice? Is it because of the hardware specs, or just a better experience overall?
