Question Virtualbox virtual machines video graphic performance?
the issue with using the gpu with the vm, is that it has to use the ENTIRE gpu resources for the vm. meaning you need a second source for the main OS. this can be built in igp or a second card installed.
as far as i know there is no way to only use some of the gpu for the vm and leave the rest for the host OS. it is all or nothing.
when i moved to linux full time i wanted a win 10 vm for the few games i wanted to play. as you noted, the built in gpu is very weak and won't do the job. lots and lots of reading and the only thing i could find to do was to install a second gpu and pass it through to the vm. same for a couple usb ports i needed for controller and so on.
i went nuts and installed a second gpu and so on but there are other options that can work if you wish to try. but again you do need a second gpu of some kind. be it igp or other option. here's a simple option for virtualbox if you have that second gpu source.
How to use a GPU in VirtualBox
VirtualBox and GPUs aren't very fond of each other, but here's how you can make them work together better.

Sure, please review the image and let me know why you don't see the "Internet access" option. Thank you.
Using the default switch ensures your network port reaches the VM. If you prefer no internet access or visibility on the network, choose not connected, which will turn off the VM's network port even when it's active.
