TL DR - Can anyone point me to help resources for high-performance Windows VM w/ GPU passthrough in Linux?ĮDIT: Before anyone yells to read through the sub - I have found some great resources such as this: - but I am looking general advice as I don't know much about Virtualization in general. I could also throw in another GPU if it would make sense/ is possible to give 1 GPU over entirely to the VM. I figure for daily use I could spare fully half of my CPU cores and a good amount of GPU for the VM when it's running, and then just turn off the VM if I need to do anything intensive like simulation or rendering. I set up virtualbox and it does okay, but seems to have a 256 MB VRAM limit and I'd prefer to get as much out of the GPU as I can - Ideally I'd be able to run some 3D software with decent performance as needed. I would however like to contain the VM to my secondary m.2 drive. This machine is always on and I typically will remote into it to handle rendering tasks while I'm traveling, which is why I would prefer to avoid a typical dual-boot setup. I'd like to setup a VM running Windows 10 inside Mint to run some Windows-only software and I'm wondering how high-performance I can get it especially regarding VRAM/ GPU passthrough. Still, a few programs that I need daily and make up about 25% of my workflow are PC-only and I haven't had any luck running them through Wine. I've switched my home workstation over to Linux Mint - sick of Windows and my primary programs (Houdini) run well on Linux.
