Home will more than meet your needs. If you don't need the Pro capabilities, then save your money. Pro will not perform better than Home for your stated uses.
home is more than enough for a gaming rig.

what i like about pro is the ability to use the group policy. this allows you to turn off a ton of stuff you don't need that the home version forces on you. won't make a massive difference overall but it is nice to get rid of cortana, windows defender, and many other useless things MS forces on you. for that reason i like the pro version, but the extra cost may not be worth it to you personally. if you're even comfortable using group policies that is....
