How do I make a dual Boot for Windows 10. When i already have fedora. I want to use a single SSD for both systems. Also is it possible without loosing my current data.

    i use virt manager for this, not what you want but just try it, it is a lot faster than virtual box

      Is this usable for gaming?

        some people do game on it, but it is a bit difficult to set up, what games do you want to play?

        If you have a desktop and can install a dedicated GPU for Gaming, libvirt should be able to game a full speed

          Sorry, but wouldn’t you need 2 video cards for that to work?

          One for regular desktop and one for the VM to access to game properly?? (GPU pass though)

          Edit: Or does it work on Intel CPUs aa the desktop could use the igpu while the windows VM uses the dedicated one?

          Ryzen users is shit outta luck if that’s true. Ramming 2 dedicated GPUs in one computer might be a more expensive affair.

            That’s what I meant by “dedicated GPU for Gaming” presuming the desktop already had a video card for regular use.

          Will battle eye and other anti cheat software work?

            Sure. Why not. The game wouldn’t know you’re in a VM. The GPU is presented to Windows so it SHOULD all just work. There’s plenty on Youtube for getting this to work.

              It can easily see you’re in a VM. For example, the OVMF UEFI firmware is a dead giveaway. Nobody runs that on physical hardware.
