Unlikely to cause an issue, though on older Ryzen CPUs with fTPM there can be lag and hangs if your bios and kernel is not up to date

No.
Mine is enabled with OpenSUSE, just means you get the MOK enrollment menu sometimes where you have to say yes to enrolling the new key and type your password
Look up MOK
Just upgrade to Windows 11 without using the TPM. It's trivial. Just a registry edit I'm pretty sure.
I'd just move my baremetal OS to Linux full-time and run Windows in a VM for the few things which don't run well or at all in Linux either natively or through WINE if you can, but that's just me.
Although since you can't ditch it completely because you play a lot of kernel anticheat-ridden games, you'll pretty much have to dual-boot as most kernel anticheats block VMs, or ideally in this case, just build a dedicated Windows box for those games and separate them as far as possible from your main system, and put Linux on your main system.
solely for gaming.
Have you checked that those games don't run well on linux?
Thanks to Valve, the linux gaming scene has improved massively (barring kernel-level anti-cheats).
That's a solid option. I've been running Mint for a couple years now with no issues in my chosen games. BF6 is the only one that comes to mind when thinking of modern linux-incompatible games. (EA specifically blocked it)
There's also the LTSC version of windows 10 which gets security updates until 2032, if you're not trying to deal with windows 11 or EA bs for the next 7 years.
I play a lot of PvP games with anti cheat so those won’t work but thanks
Do you have your last pc. I always tell people to do linux on their last machine till they are ready to boot window once and for all. It runs so much better for most things it will usually compare favorably to windows on the your latest hardware.
