As all the cool kids keep saying, now is a great time to try out Linux.

No, I’m not recommending a distro for you, that is what DuckDuckGo is for.

Can you run windows games on linux without it being resource intensive like using a vm or something?

If you are lucky, things run with minimal tinkering or out of the box.
If you are me... You won't be able to play using virtual lans (zerotier one, xlink kai) and some games that should work out of the box just won't start.
That's literally the only reasons I haven't switched OS.

It definitely depends on the game and the particulars of your own system.

The answer to the question is a resounding "you'll have to try it for yourself". It could be flawless, it could be a nightmare, there's a lot of variables.
