I’ve been dual booting Linux and windows for about two years now, but in those two years, I have never booted into windows, except by mistake.

This made me think about removing windows and just saving that wasted space for Linux. I only ever dual booted for the off chance the peer pressure to play anti cheat games was too great, but so far it hasn’t.

For the off chance where I want to play a game that doesn’t run well on Linux, is it a good idea to do that via VM instead of dual boot, or is it too much hassle? Will there be performance hit or any issues with those games?

    I have recently been playing with VMs in Unraid and in the video tutorials I’ve seen they talk about about grouping together (by editing xml file[1]) the video with audio that comes the GPU to avoid that error. Also about passing a modified BIOS. Are those the workarounds been talked about here?
