Very nice! I haved used garuda before and liked it a lot. I switched from garuda to cachy when I got the 7900xtx as I couldn't update llvm and mesa to experimental versions without breaking a bunch of dependencies to get the gpu working. Cachy already had those optimizations built in and ended up having a lot of optimizations I liked (BORE scheduler, etc) so I have stayed on it since.
Its a newer distro, but has good support and very friendly devs.
Does the change in scheduler help out in CPU-bound games?
I think it does. D4 and Halo seem to be on par or slightly ahead of windows. Also basic tasks, web browsing, etc feel more "snappy" on the same hardware than garuda, which used the zen kernel.
