First off, I have had a few different linux distro’s over the years but I hardly know whats going on. Had a headless server, where again, I barely got it up and running.
Right now all but my main PC are running mint and I’m almost there on biting the bullet on moving my main to mint but I’m just not sure if it’ll run everything, along with triple monitor setup. I was thinking of temple OS, but mint would probably be my choice.
Thoughts or suggestions?

No need for the punctuation. In fact, it’s confusing to put it in as we don’t pluralize with an apostrophe; ever.
Everyone has a favourite distro. You’re going to hear everyone tell you why their favourite distro is perfect for you.
I personally hate it, but Ubuntu is a very accessible distro. If you have no idea about the validation errors inherent in the deb format, nor how flatpaks and snaps completely kill validation even harder, and why that throws consistency out the window and thus impacts security, then use Ubuntu until you know better.
You’re fine. It’s not going to make a differentiating difference either way. If your specs can run Linux, then basically every one of them is mostly equally suited, unless your hardware is super small and/or oddball. You can rest assured that the Bunts and Mints and Arch people will continue to suggest their favourite distro regardless, as nothing in your list is so weird or small as to exclude any of them.
Anyway, use the bunt (if mint isn’t indicated here, despite being what you know best right now). Mint’s off my list too - validation ergo security - but it’s fine and valid if you ignore that issue like everyone does.
