Anyone know where I can buy a gaming PC with linux preinstalled instead of windows?

Yeah, you buy a gaming PC with Windows and you insert a USB stick and install Linux. Otherwise, you'll be paying a high premium for a company that does basically the same thing. Things to look out for are try to find a PC with Intel networking and bluetooth adapters. Realtek is relatively well supported, but has been known to have issues.

If gaming is top priority. Go all amd, disregard Nvidia. AMD has extraordinary linux support and if it runs on the steam deck it will run on any all AMD machine.

if your work involving CUDA then nvidia is the only option.
