Discussion on Virtual Machines
You'd likely face significant performance issues. Expect high lag in games and slower internet speeds while using the Linux OS.
The games often run slow, but your internet connection shouldn’t be impacted. This happens because a virtual machine can’t fully use your GPU power since the original operating system needs it to function. I tried Oracle’s VM software and the maximum video memory available is around 256MB, which limits performance. The 3D acceleration is also quite poor. Unless you have specialized VM tools that leverage all your GPUs, I wouldn’t recommend using this setup for gaming.
Ensure proper startup by launching directly instead of using a virtual machine. This allows full access to your system's resources.
