Ive not had a PC or gaming PC in 15 years. I want to get back into it now.
Im fairly against windows. I’d like to try a Linux system and thought this would be a fun way to get into Linux.
Ive been looking at some black friday sales here Newegg sales
Its been so long since ive looked at PC specs I feel like im completely new. Ive read that an AMD GPU can be easier for Linux so I started there.
So Ive got two questions!
What are some must have specs in you opinion to run most modern games, and would you have a #1 recommend for a prebuilt to get started with?
What disto is best for a total newbie who wants to use it for gaming and eventually transition for anything/everything else?

If you can wait 3-4 months Valve’s Steam Machine is on the horizon. Depending on the prize that might be a good bargain.
But in the end it really depends on your budget. Excluding monitor, keyboard and mouse you can pay anything between 500 and 5000 dollars.
