Probably I will start to have problems but I would like to hear yours opinions.

The only problem you probably will have is the unfamiliarity.

Steam runs flawlessly with proton (check protondb to see compability and guides to your games).

Lutris allows to install non steam games with installation scripts you get from lutris.net

Wine can be a bit tricky at times but the community is very helpful.

Try to be open regarding the applications you will now have to deal with as most propiertary applications you know from Windows won’t easily work (but can be ported via wine if you really really need to)

The Software Center is your friend and gives you a huge variety of applications to download and try out.

Happy journey!

I would personally go for Nobara. It’s also a gaming-oriented distro but it’s made by the guy that does ProtonGE and WineGE, some of the best tools for gaming.

If you haven’t used Linux before, just know that Garuda might not be the most stable. It wasn’t for me at least, I had to rescue it often. But that might have been because I didn’t use/update it regularly enough.

Garuda is definitely the right choice for your use case.

Lot of people hating on Garuda here, but I have loved it. Hopefully it goes as smoothly for you as it has for me - it’s been an absolute breath of fresh air. :)

I use Garuda, haven’t really had any issues with it so far. This is on a relatively high-spec desktop though, so can’t speak with confidence of laptop performance. It is arch based with a light install, and you can easily install/uninstall many popular packages by checking them on/off on a selection screen, so I’d imagine it’d still be good performance.

Only issue I’ve had was the time it became unbootable after I tried to change the system font so, uh, I recommend avoiding that.
