CachyOs to NixOs?

I'm new to Linux and installed CachyOS about a month ago and i'm loving the experience. I love exploring all the tools and customization options that Linux offers. But I also have a serious problem with organization and feel like my system is getting a bit messy with all the packages I install for fun and their configurations. I've heard that NixOS's configuration system is amazing, centralized, and secure (I'm particularly interested in the packages file). Therefore, I'm thinking of migrating to it, but I'm a bit worried about performance and would like to know if there's a significant difference between CachyOS and NixOS. I chose CachyOS mainly because of the kernel and package optimizations I've heard it has, but I don't know if that makes a really noticeable difference compared to other Linux distributions.
