You're looking into Linux Mint for your gaming PC without Windows. It's a solid choice, but consider other distros like Ubuntu or Fedora if you prefer different features or stability.

Ubuntu, Gentoo, Kali – pick your favorite! If you're into script kiddies and enjoy free public Wi-Fi, just let me know which one you're leaning toward.

Linux Mint is currently the most popular choice for straightforward Linux setups. You might also consider Elementary (still in beta) or Lubuntu.

Linux Mint works well for gaming, but it may not suit other uses if you need more than that.

I understand it was previously addressed, yet Linux Mint excels in gaming. You can run Linux games alongside WINE to play Windows applications and titles.

WINE doesn't just mimic Windows; it transforms other operating systems into virtual versions of Windows.

You can easily get a free, activated version of Windows 10 through Microsoft's Windows Insider program.

I believed it was similar to not wanting to pay for a Windows-like product, so I assumed you'd prefer it free from Microsoft. However, that wasn't the case.
