I'd suggest trying a couple through live ISOs to see what works best out of the box with your hardware. I settled on CachyOS and definitely recommend it. Bazzite is ok, very stable, but keep in mind it is immutable which may hamper its abilities as a full desktop.

    Oh it's immutable? Damn.

    That explains some shit.

    How do I go about switching to CachyOS? Just wipe the NVME and run an installer?

    Yeah I'd wipe it if you're going to switch, always less headaches that way. CachyOS has a lot of options so I'll throw my 2 cents out there, I set it up with btrfs file system and the limine bootloader because it automatically sets up snapshots so you can roll back if something gets borked. It's also easier to get secure boot working with limine if you're trying to dual boot.
