I know the “best linux for gaming” is probably one of the most common questions, but I have heard that some distro can have issues with some hardware, I have a crappy old PC with an integrated radeon R7, which distro would you recommend?

It depends. Old Windows games actually work better in Wine than on modern Windows.
Newer games usually work out of the box via Steam and Proton, often with better performance than on Windows. Especially on a pc with ATI graphics.
AAA titles with anticheat often don’t work, but it doesn’t sound like that’s what OP is after.
Never saw this happening. Also wine has overhead.
Well, I’m playing Fallout: New Vegas on linux right now and it works way better than other Bethesda games I’ve played on windows. And FNV has a reputation of being really glitchy/buggy with lots of crashes. Yes, it crashed twice so far, but for 70+ hours and constant alt+tabbing it doesn’t sound that bad!
