    Pop OS is the best to start with, it’s awesome.

      heard it works best with nividia’s gpu’s, I have an AMD GPU on a decent laptop, is that good enough?

        So basically nvidia makes their drivers on Linux a pain to install and use and Linux’s creator has called them out on it in the past. So PopOS is known for having tools that make getting them working easier.

        AMD on the other hand has open source drivers so they are right in the kernel. So their GPUS are just plug and play like a USB mouse

        Hmm I haven’t heard that Nvidia works better than Amd ever actually.

        Amd drivers are included on the kernel so it will just work on all distributions. So I would give it a shot, don’t think you will have any problems. :)
