I think the main issue was that Mint doesn’t have good power management tools (so I used a third-party utility). Not a ‘gaming’ laptop but it does have a dedicated Nvidia GPU and I got the drivers working fine, and most games ran better than than they did on windows. I’ll check out CachyOs! Thank you for the suggestion. I haven’t tried Fedora in a decade (and not on this PC, obviously), so I’ll take a look at that, too.

Last time I tried (Mint) the dealbreaker for me was battery management. I tried various utils and settings but I couldn’t get as much juice of of the same charge using Mint and still have good performance. If anyone has any suggestions I’d be grateful!
That’s why I employ a staff of a few dozen multilingual interpreters to follow me to the supermarket to translate the ingredient labels in the import isle.
Just need to find Benjamin Franklin to charge your patented Super Battery, and wash your carriage to ensure precipitation!
