Yeah, the driver thing is pretty much solved at this point. If you have AMD there's literally nothing to worry about. If you have Nvidia, you're probably also good to go, but slightly less guaranteed. Make a Bootable USB of the distro you choose and try it to see if your hardware is supported. It's low effort and no risk.
Something you might not know is the drivers come packaged with the kernel, so you literally never have to worry about updating your drivers. They're just there in the background up to date. It awesome.
The experience with Linux is so much smoother than Windows because the system manages most things for you. All your applications will be updated by the package manager, so you don't need to go to websites to download updates. Graphics drivers are just there. Everything is just handled for you.
