    Someone in a previous post said they did it with one GPU, using a script to handle the swap when they were done with the VM.

      That’s definitely possible but would make the host OS unusable while the VM is running afaik. Why not dual boot at that point?

        I believe it was brought up after the previous Windows update fuckup, so that’s as good a reason as any. Some people don’t want to reserve a partition just for Windows but still need/want to be able to use certain programs that aren’t yet usable on Linux.

        VMs safely contain Windows so it can’t do anything to the host, and if you’re playing a game on a Windows VM, you’re probably not worried about using the host anyway. I’ve considered it myself, but I’ve done dual boot, and it’s not worth having the training wheels, imo.
