EndeavourOS. It’s a variant of Arch, I had hopped around different OS and was on Windows for a bit before switching back to Linux. Ive stuck with Endeavour as it feels quick and nimble but performs great on gaming (better than the native windows install on my PC) and the access to the AUR is a massive perk
I get the Nvidia issues for sure, I also tried Fedora but just felt more comfortable once getting acclimated to arch. I’d say give it a whirl if you are up for it. It works well with my Zephyrus G14 which also has an Nvidia GPU.
Not trying to sell you on it but you may like it, maybe try it in a Virtual Machine for a bit?
