Okay I have a case coming in to shove my junk in it. 8500t (temporary until I get a 8700k) -16gb ram -1060 6gb -2 2.5ssd -2 3.5hdd

I'm partial to Mint and Debian commands. Anyone have a suggestion before I go balls deep into a Mint distro build?

Keep in mind that 1060 will give you a lot of headache for games using DirectX 12. If you can, get an RTX 20 series or GTX 16 series card, or dual boot with Windows.

Yea my laptop is running Linux mint with a 1060 and it's kinda a pain to run. I just flat out don't want to use windows at all.
