I’ve been dual booting Linux and windows for about two years now, but in those two years, I have never booted into windows, except by mistake.

This made me think about removing windows and just saving that wasted space for Linux. I only ever dual booted for the off chance the peer pressure to play anti cheat games was too great, but so far it hasn’t.

For the off chance where I want to play a game that doesn’t run well on Linux, is it a good idea to do that via VM instead of dual boot, or is it too much hassle? Will there be performance hit or any issues with those games?

    A friend of mine did it and the result is a surprisingly well running VM after lots of tinkering, but he gets screwed by Anti-Cheat software. So I’m afraid a Windows VM could be disappointing for you.
