Is there a way to confirm which games in your library will work well on Linux for your specific hardware, gaming is the only thing keeping me on Windows for now, I'd be happy to get rid of windows if I could run most of my games on Linux and the rest maybe I can run on Wine or a virtual desktop
Not for specific hardware but you can sign in to ProtonDB with your steam account and get an overview of your entire steam library. For online games there is areweanticheatyet.com, you will have to check games manually. AMD, Nvidia (9xx and newer) and Intel iGPUs (Skylake and newer) have roughly the same compatibility, performance differs usually favoring Windows on Nvidia.
To add, ProtonDB usually has the user's specs next to their reports, so you can try to find reports with similar specs to your computer.
