I want to get some experience with Linux before win 10 goes end of support. I won't be using this machine for work. Gaming primarily but also 3d printing and possibly some light piracy. Is there any reason not to install steam os?

Thanks in advance kind and wise nerds in my phone.

Can't answer before SteamOS 3.0 releases, but hopefully it wil be ok for other things while focusing on gaming.

In the meantime I've just been recommend Linux Mint as a first time experience but there are other alternatives better for gaming than Mint.
