What you need is a system integrator unless you want to learn how to optimize every bit for yourself. For most users, paying the small premium for tested and optimized hardware gets paid back constantly and many times over. This is true for every general purpose desktop OS, but it's often overlooked by people who try to convert a supported W10 or Mac device to an unsupported Linux device.

I think the Kubuntu Focus (kfocus.org) - a product I manage - does it best. Of course there are a number of system integrators, so shop around.

What do you mean by supported windows ??
Bill Gates never answered my questions when I had drivers trouble πŸ˜‹
But with Linux you join a true community. There is bugs of course, but you can hope someone will try to fix them with you. Don't say things you don't know.

Well see that’s a mistake.. You should ask the hardware vendor to fix your driver, not Bill Gates...
