I installed PoP!_OS on my laptop with a gtx 1050. It booted first try, I installed Steam and was able to run every single game that I like in my library without issues, including some with weird launchers (Warframe...).

I play a ton of video games and have wanted this for so long. It is an option. I am backing up everything off my Windows desktop via Syncthing as I'm typing this for a seamless switch to Linux.
