BUT DO NOT NUKE YOUR WINDOWS.
Try basic Linux systems on virtual machines and see for your self. Let your curiosity guide you.
There are documentation for everything.
When you get to the point that you like it and are comfortable with using Terminal or just normal use, "Dual Boot" it next to your windows. Then you can get the smooth use of Linux with your hardware.
If got to the point that you can use terminal's basic commands and know what they do and like to program and write some script, try arch(MASSIVE DOCUMENTATION).
Also try ricing your system on different window/tile/desktop managers. You can get other's config that looks nice to you. You can then look at their config files to see how they did it and how you could do it. Then make yours or you can read the wikis and do it you self.
If you didn't read all of this..... Documentations won't help you. Watch Youtube guides and use simple OS's like Mint, Manjaro, Ubuntu or Cutefish.
TLDR: try linux on virtual machine and see if it's your cup of penguin cum.
