I've installed mint, pop os and Ubuntu. TBH if it's a spare, just download one and give it a go.

I really just play games and use a browser, so it's been easy peasy for me. Look into making a partition for /home if you feel like you'll swap around it makes it pretty easy. Then you can try a few out without too much of an issue.
