I cannot recommend Bazzite. It's an atomic distribution, which is pioneer tech that tries to make some things better but in effect makes a lot of things more difficult. FWIW, I've been using Linux for 20+ years.
Do I have to eat a bucket or something for this to happen? I have never ever in my life had the same kind of effect from anything as I get every single time when I drink a cup of coffee after 18:00.
Like others suggested here, the problem is probably nouveau and you might want to try a gaming-oriented distro which usually configure these things correctly out-of-the-box. My favourite is Nobara and Fedora (which didn't work for you but works for me because I have different hardware). People suggest Bazzite, but I cannot recommend it because it's based on Fedora Atomic, and I don't get along with Fedora Atomic.
As a general admittedly non-helpful suggestion, don't get Nvidia hardware if you want to use Linux.
For some historical context, Nvidia has had premium Linux support since 2006. For the longest time it was the only option for any kind of hardware accelerated 3D graphics on Linux and it generally worked pretty well.
Thankfully, AMD made the open-source side of graphics on Linux work also recently. At least for two years, AMD GPUs have been entirely trouble-free on Linux. To my knowledge, Nouveau is not quite there yet.
That's exactly what happens when a Facebook competitor (possibly an ethical one) rolls out these days. Which is part of the problem. Zuck poisoned the idea.
No don't use Nix they're evil. Use Lix or Auxolotl or Tvix or Tangram or Brioche or Guix
