I just picked up a cheap older gaming PC with a GTX 1050 and and Intel I7 CPU. Trying to decide what distro to load on it for gaming. Curious that others experience is gaming on various distros.

Arch Linux. I wanted to try Hyprland with something and I felt like it was the easiest with Arch.

Hyprland isn't officially supported on that nvidia card

Well, I just gave my reason for using Arch. Pre-Turing cards are already problematic on Linux, not just with Hyprland.
