I’m considering to switch to Proxmox for my main PC, run a Windows VM on top and passthrough the GPU to play games. However, I heard anti-cheates aren’t that friendly to VMs. Had anyone tried this? Thanks.

    Proxmox runs KVM/Qemu in the backend, so it’s essentially the same thing. OP might want to have a machine in their rack they use for remote gaming for example.

    Also don’t use VirtualBox.

        It’s subpar, closed source, kernel module installing, type 2 virtualization that makes users believe VMs are slow, when in fact Type 1 hypervisors usually achieve near 98% efficiency. And too boot it means that open-source projects like virt-manager don’t get the usership they deserve and need to continue being maintained.

        There is legit not a single reason to use it on Linux, and there hasn’t been in well over a decade.
