The general consensus is that you shouldn't be selecting your distro based on gaming, all of the modern well maintained distros will be relatively the same performance. In my opinion you should select your distro first on how well maintained it is, then on stability, & then how well you know how to fix issues. Although I don't follow my own advice since I use arch but that is because I am far more accostumed to that ecosystem.
