I’ve been thinking about switching to Linux for a while, but there are some things that make me want to stay on Windows. For example, Gaming and installation of graphics card and software availability.

My G-Card was GT 730 2 GB ddr5.

Can I be able to play the games that Windows supported without losing frames?

    It sounds like the best option would be a dual boot, Linux for everything except games and when you want to play just boot into Windows. If you do this i would strongly suggest a two HD set up, one for windows and one for Linux, for two reasons, if you don’t like Linux then you still have the original windows setup, two Windows will at one moment wipe the dual boot grub and you’ll ‘lose’ the Linux startup, unless you have one OS per Hard Disk. I don’t game anymore. Like you I also have an old card Gtx760 🤣🤣

      Definitely use 2 HDs. I’ve ran into the issue with Windows all of a sudden deciding to wipe the boot grub. Makes no sense!

        I would also recommend using drives with different sizes. The different drive enumeration means that it’s really easy for beginners to format their windows drive. Different sizes help as a way of double checking that you are on the right drive.
