How likely is this to work? KVM/VFIO Single GPU Passthrough
I've been wanting to make a proper switch over to Linux for a while now. I've currently have a dual-boot setup but still mostly use Windows. The majority of my games should work without fuss, but I'd like to have a simple solution for running the handful of things that don't work in Linux, such as my WMR VR headset and a handful of Steam games.
Linked is a video on Single GPU passthrough with KVM/VFIO, which I'd like to try.
Before I try this, I'd like a sense of how likely it is to work, and I'm wondering if there might be a better solution I don't know of. I'm also open to any tips you might have about speeding up the transition between Host/Guest OS.
I set this up with proxmox on a lark over a weekend
It would have been perfectly fine for desktop usage, but I had terrible performance, like sub 30 fps in vanilla Minecraft. (i3-8100, 1060 6gb)
It may be possible to optimize it further, but I think you need some much better hardware than I have.
It was surprisingly simple though, there are guides on the proxmox website.
