For gaming it's not fully compatible.
There's no Direct X only emulators and it uses best of Vulkan.
I would say simply try Ubuntu first which is the most similar to Windows, after getting along with it (maybe install it via VM or as second partition) then you could move into more gaming dedicated distro such as Fedora, Nobara, POP or Drauger.
Lots of them are basically Ubuntu with touches and cuts designed better for gaming.
Before you jump into Linux gaming you should check https://www.protondb.com/ to see if the game you want to play work well on PC.
Tons of compatible games but not all newly released games instantly compatible on Linux - if you're into play the latest releases stay on Windows.
