I keep seeing Pop!_OS brought up for gaming.
I've been using Pop for a few months as my daily driver to replace Windows. It had been a few years since I'd used Linux and I wanted something stable for Nvidia drivers. I've had next to no issues with it.
Mint lets you install Nvidia drivers pretty easily nowadays. My surfacebook 2 has a 1050 mobile built in and it couldn't have been easier to get the drivers installed.
Ubuntu I don't recommend, nor Pop_OS simply due to Snaps. Where as flatpak is the standard built into Mint.
I tried Pop!_OS 3 times, and all 3 times, my computer crashed irrecoverably at some point.
I ended up replacing it.
