The article mentions that there are performance penalties to running hypervisor cracks in a VM with GPU passthrough, but if you're dual-booting barebones Arch (just enough to get a VM running), is there really a significant performance loss?
And once you have that set up on a separate boot, then it should be safe and fairly efficient to set up a bunch of these hypervisor cracks, I'd expect.
I don't care enough or have time to tinker with this myself, but that sounds like a more fun project than actually playing one of these AAA games, lol.
also, probably not a thing vast majority of gamers have the ability to set-up or maintain.
Ya, too much work to play that list of games.
