I have an older i7 circa 2009, 16 gigs ram, and a gtx1060 with an ssd for os. I'm thinking either Pop!_Os or Nobara? Idea's, what do yall think?

I've been using Nobara for the last year on my main gaming computer, it's been great. Pop_OS is solid too, Ive used it on my laptop for a bit, pretty smooth too.

Most mainline distros will work fine. If you just plan on gaming mostly and want an easy solution, Nobara is really good.
