Just install Linux Mint and be done. Just a side note but there is no such thing as "drivers" like there are on Windows. Everything is baked into the kernel. If you run Nvidia you will need to install the proprietary Nvidia drivers. These aren't like Windows drivers but they are external.

Uh, if they want to use ROCm (kinda like CUDA, but for AMD), they do have to install it manually. It is available for some distros, so that hopefully shouldn't be a problem.

Fedora now ships with ROCm. I don't think it is completely ready yet but its a start.
