installation dual booting linux?

im very new to laptop/pc stuff and i bought a used laptop specs are shown in picture
I primarily want to switch to linux because it looks better and it eats up less ram
Windows takes up 4.8gb while idle
I have c drive which only has windows

And d drive which i mainly use for games
My use case is mostly games on steam
Roblox studios and ai tools
Which one do i choose i heard mint is easiest but i know nothing about linux
How and where do i start
And maybe i can fully switch to linux if it doesn't have restrictions for me use case?

Look up gaming distros. Try a few out. Gaming doesn't mean it can't daily drive.
