What kind of issues are you facing?

Do you have exotic hardware? Like high refresh rate monitors?

I went through Ubuntu, Nobara, manjaro, mint, pop, Ubuntu again, and landed on open suse. I have no exotic hardware. My biggest issue was the pc going into hibernate and then never coming back. The secondary issue was getting certain games on steam to work and an Xbox controller. I seem to have all of that licked with suse and some tinkering. The battle I'm having now is when the pc goes to sleep/hibernate/whatever sometimes it completely forgets it's monitor settings and I have to turn the second monitor back on and then change them from 200% back to 100%. Which I thought I had solved by messing with the monitors.config file but I guess not...

Asus rog m16 laptop if that helps any.

I would hardly consider high refresh rate monitors to be exotic. They're quite common.

I wonder what distros they tried though. Considering this is a thread on Nobara I wouldn't be surprised if they had issues with the variety of gaming distros available
