But, whichever OS you decide to pick up, if you're used to KDE, you might consider TDE as WM.

It's nothing but the old faithful KDE 3.5 (which I've been happily running in a hardware setup similar to the one you mention) ported to the more recent distros, by a group of former KDE developers and maintainers, unhappy with the road taken by KDE 4 (and now KDE 5), which, with the "Plasma" and "plasmoids" things has become too heavy, bloated, and buggy beyond hope.

It's good to see that that's come back to life, it had a worrying hiatus a couple of years ago.

In any event, watch out for distreaux which mandate systemd and NetworkManager. I normally disable the latter but a few weeks ago something happened which made me suspect that recent KDEs don't like that (full disclosure: I think that was on Debian Jessie on an RPi2, and in this case I /mean/ Debian not Raspbian).
