Well @[email protected] suggested bazzite as it is the image built for gamers and OP is asking about nobara which is also packaged specifically for gamers. In general though all the ublue images are great
It can be, but for that, I would rather recommend Aurora or Bluefin. They are almost the same, but without gaming stuff.

Yeah, of course it is. I use it too for 3D-modeling, image editing and more.
For general purpose, it’s pretty normal. Its’ main advantages really only shine in gaming stuff.
But, to be fair, I don’t know if the tweaks optimised for gaming don’t negatively affect other stuff. I didn’t notice anything yet, but you can’t be sure.
Just use Bazzite. It updated automatically to F40 just a few hours after upstream, still has all security settings intact and is a joy to use.
Or Universal Blue in general. They also make Aurora and Bluefin, both are amazing!

True, just wanted to mention that they make other great stuff. You can basically game on every Linux distro, it doesn’t have to be gaming-focused.
Is bazzite good for general purpose use also?

I use Bazzite on my gaming PC, and Aurora on my media laptop. I’m extremely happy with both.

Oh I guess, I meant to say is it good for general purpose use alongside gaming.
Yes it is, I personally daily drive it and it’s great 🙌
Addtionaly, there is this post asking about the same. Might be worth reading the comments of you’re curios🌻

I use it for general stuff and even to work, no issues.
Reading about Bluefin got me so interested that I just installed it on my laptop. After updating, it’s still at 39. How do I update it to 40?
EDIT: just figured it out:
sudo rpm-ostree rebase ostree-image-signed:docker://ghcr.io/ublue-os/bluefin-dx:latest
