      Proton is a better option unless the game needs Anti-Cheat, which most won’t work in a VM, anyway

      Personally I dual boot Win10 LTSC with fake credentials and some privacy tweaks for games that need to be on windows

      With GPU passthrough you can get almost native performance. This requires 2 GPUs though (iGPU as second one should suffice), dunno about the input lag and stability though as I only have one GPU

      Without it though? Not even worth trying

        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 don’t recommend going that direction. I think you’ll get better results with Proton and Proton-based solutions like Lutris and family.
