As we are probably talking about gaming, it's mostly the same. You'll always find games which run better on Windows and games that run better on Linux.
The performance you get not running all the bloat Windows offers is often the same you loose using Proton to translate these games.
Your hardware is completly irrelevant for that, take what looks the best for you and enjoy the experience.
A very mixed bag. Especially with Nvidia it wasn't possible until recently iirc. You probably can get most working with SteamVR, but if you're using something like a Meta Quest, you need third-party software like ALVR as Meta doesn't support Linux.
Short answer: Steam.
Not the question, but if you have games from GOG, Epic Games or Amazon, you can use software like Heroic Games Launcher and for everything else Lutris or Bottles.
It's very dependant on which software you use/which games you play. Best would be to check ProtonDB, AreWeAntiCheatYet and maybe WineHQ to answer the questions yourself. Generally I would advice to do it at the beginning, because if you don't like it/can't use it for whatever reason, you can just go back.
