Try OpenSUSE/PCLinuxOS/Ubuntu. All have Gnome and KDE desktops (kubuntu=ubuntu+KDE) as well as many more.
Dual boot your machine and keep Windoze for games! There are commercial things like Cedega and freeware things like Wine to allow Windoze as a VM within Linux, haven't used the former, occasionally use the latter.

The site gives info, $5 a month I think, and a list of games that run. Of course M$ will eventually close this up by requesting windoze validation in games!
If you want to learn about running a server and programming though, all the tools are there for free!
