Antergos should work as well as any up-to-date Linux distribution. Personally I prefer Fedora, but Arch tends to stay rather up-to-date. That being said, how well a distribution runs on a machine usually relies on what desktop environment you're using. Lightweight environments like XFCE will usually run faster than heavier environments like GNOME. Even lighter, you can forgo a DE and just use a window manager like i3 or Openbox.
