I’m in the planning stages of a build that will be essentially this, a proxmox build that’ll include my NAS with several hard drives (running in one VM), all my docker containers (another VM) and Linux and Windows vms with passthrough that I can spin up temporarily for games.
I think I can get the Windows VM in a place where I can also restart the whole machine and boot in natively, as a fallback for games with aggressive anti cheats that won’t allow VMs, which I don’t think I’ll be playing much of anyway.
To answer your question, it really would be best to check game by game if the anti cheat allows VMs.
Yeah, I mean being able to boot either into proxmox or windows. But in proxmox, I can also open that windows install as a VM.
Some details on how it should work are here (apologies for the reddit link): https://www.reddit.com/r/VFIO/comments/aejdqk/kvm_importuse_existing_windows_install_on_disk/edqtmvb/
