I find I am gaming more and more on consoles. While I have (what i would consider a decent rig) i rarely game on it. I am now surfing more and or working from home alot more or coding or video editing. 

I am considering moving to unix/linux 2018

 

 

my biggest issue is "support" i run 4 monitors on a GTX 1080ti and an external sound card that runs x2 KRK Studio Monitors. 

 

Has support improved for motherboards/nics/sound devices/printing/scanning/webcams etc?

That should be fine, the only things that you may have a problem with is thee audio device and the Hue+.  Depending on the OS that you choose you will most likely have to install the Nvidia drivers or do some tweaking with them, if you are going to use Ubuntu I recommend Pop!_OS since they ship a version with working Nvidia drivers.  For the Hue+ I found this script on github, I don't have one of them so I haven't tested it but here it is: https://github.com/kusti8/hue-plus.  I also don't have that same audio device, but I have a similar style of one from Tascam and I have audio playback that works, but don't have recording yet.  Also you will need to enable trim, this guide is for Ubuntu based operating systems but could work for otherss, https://askubuntu.com/questions/18903/how-to-enable-trim.  My best suggestion is to create a bootable usb to try out the OS of your choice so you can decide if there are any issues
