I have an "old" computer that is beefy enough to play games but doesn't meet the arbitrary requirements for Windows 11. I'm not brave enough to try a non-windows gaming machine again.
The biggest fear you should have is windows 10 installers losing their capability to install win 10 when they call home.
I've been on Manjaro (xfce image, which feels like XP with updated taskbar search) for about a year, even though in the past I've hated attempts to use a linux desktop (Even came with Steam already installed and working).
I got steam going perfectly on MX linux, but the AMDGPU setup was a royal PITA to get working. Took me days to figure out. Definitely not turnkey. Maybe ubuntu is better in this regard, but too far open sores for my taste.
I'm wondering as Windows 10 EOL approaches if Microsoft is going to blink and backtrack on the hardware requirements for Windows 11.
I only have 2 personal PCs that are officially capable of running Windows 11 so pretty much every other machine I own will be moved to Linux once Windows 10 reaches EOL.
