Yes I have tried Debian. Debian is not near as bleeding edge and may not have as good of driver support. It is also quite often slower. If you really want the best performance, a distro like Arch is really the only easy way to get it. Arch is also rolling release which also makes it easier long term. I've actually tried probably 20 or 30 distros and Arch is my favorite. It is difficult the first few times you set it up, but the benefits are great, if you have the time and patience.
