Hi Barry,
I know I`m a bit late to the party, but I`ve had really good luck with Manjaro.
As for running Windows games, have you
tried Proton with Steam? I`ve had good luck with that too, although I`ve only
tried it for a few games. I don`t play as
much as I used to. But it worked with AOE, Dealer`s Choice, and StarCraft II.
