Which version should I chose ?

A:

With Ubuntu you're more lucky than with Windows. You can try before install any Ubuntu version you want. You can create a Ubuntu LiveDVD or LiveUSB and try everything in live mode without damaging anything inside your PC. Maybe start with 14.04 as a reference. See how fast it goes, and then move up (or down) a version or two.  
You can also try other Ubuntu flavors: liter (Xubuntu, Lubuntu, Cubuntu, UbuntuMate) or heavier (Kubuntu).
