I recommend staying away from Arch-Derivatives like Garuda Linux. They really add nothing off value. You only end up having a couple of inexperienced Linux users having messed with your kernel, swap disk, schedulers, governors etc. The first principle of ArchLinux is simplicity and being able to know your system, and these derivatives throw that straight out the door. Everytime you run into an issue you'll not know if its related to Arch itself or something the Garuda installer has messed with. Which is why people on the ArchLinux forums and IRC aren't eager to help others using a derivative. Garuda is one of the worst examples with the team being so unprofessional. As an example their emberassingly small wiki contains emoticons. Manjaro already gets shame for not properly informing users of the risks of the AUR, and Garuda absolutely discards security entirely by using a third party repository with pre-compiled AUR packages... All-in-all you get a whole lot of uncertainty for having some stuff pre-configured. Something a simple install script (that you can actually review and modify) could cover as well. As for Cinnamon, it's nice I like it.
