I want to get into Linux, coming from windows 11! What distro should I get for gaming and school.

I was thinking Linux mint, then then there's actual gaming Distro. I will not be doing school a lot, but I want to be able to use it for school, and mainly gaming.

I'm on an HP laptop, 8GB of ram. I want to be able to play all my steam games too.

I probably will dual boot.
