If it has an AMD GPU you can just install it now, no waiting. But it's not good at much more than just playing games, if you want a more general purpose machine I'd install something mainstream like Mint, Ubuntu or Fedora.

It does have amd, but I'm in no big hurry. Couple online games I won't be playing after the windows dump and I'm not interested in dual booting. I have a laptop running Linux for work\office things already. The desktop is just gaming and media.
