I'm ditching Windows 10 once and for all and I was wondering if my oldish desktop can rock and roll with Ubuntu 18.04!? The PC configuration is as follows: Intel core i5-660, 8GB RAM (DDR3), Nvidia GeForce GTX 650, SSD 120 GB. I read that Ubuntu 18.04 comes with Gnome 3 which is a resource hungry DE.

yes it should be fine also ubuntu and many other distros have what is called a live cd/usb so you can boot from a live usb or dvd and test the os before you install it to make one follow the instructions from this ubuntu tutorials page
