ey /g/

Does it make more sense to:
run win7 native for gaming, install VM with fedora for everything that is not gaming
or
run fedora native, install vm running win7 for gaming

The first option makes the most sense. You won't be gaming in a VM, since the graphical card VMs provide to the guest OS is a virtual, software-emulated one, not the one you actually have in your machine, and thus any sort of 3D performance will be horrendous.

ty kind friend
that is what i assumed but was not positive

>>58598153
You haven't used QEMU+KVM, have you?
>>
>>58598117
You can keep a fully-featured Fedora desktop within 16GB of your hard drive; just make a partition for it and dual-boot.
>>
>>58598163
Yet, he's wrong. Just make sure to use KVM for visualizing Windows
>>
>>58598147
this. RIP OP
>>
>>58598153
Passthrough with KVM, don't listen to this retard.
>>
>>58598117
holy shit? is that a shop? source?
>>
>>58598117
Buy a second hard drive and install linux onto it.

fappening?
>>
>>58598230
Newfag GTFO.
>>
>>58598153
You are absolutely retarded. I'm running Arch Linux as my OS and Passthrough my GPU to a Windows VM with QEMU+KVM
>>
>>58598204
Wouldn't freeing up resources by running only Windows while gaming be a good idea regardless?
>>
>>58598255
not gayming is a better idea
>>
>>58598240
ha?
>>
>>58598230
Either newfag or underage. Either way.
>>
>>58598255
It depends on what you're trying to run and what hardware you're using. If resources are constrained, maybe.
>>
>>58598117
>run fedora native, install vm running win7 for gaming
this

I have Yosemite on my virtual box but it keeps shitting itself,it's slow and the mouse drags a lot. I allocated 4gb RAM and 128mb GPU, the max it let's me allocate,and 4 CPU cores. It's still shit, what am I missing?

>tripfag running to call someone a newfag
the attention seeking never ceases to amaze me

macOS runs like poop in a vm, install it for real

>Freeing up resources
I run 400MB of ram while working on linux. 8GB is for my Windows. Again, learn to computer.

The only reason you don't use a trip is because you know nobody gives a shit about you.
>>
>>58598323
So it's not hardware related? I need OSX for Sketch but no way in hell I'm getting a mac
>>
>>58598335
Perhaps i sounded like a child. 400MB of RAM is in USE by Linux when i'm working on documents and crap. Then when i flip on my VM it shoots to 8.45GB usage because its giving that RAM to the VM. No performance loss on either machine.
>>
>>58598348
no, it doesn't have full hardware acceleration in a vm
you'll notice things like the transparency effects aren't enabled for most things, and where they are (launchpad, opening a folder from the dock, just to name a couple) is extremely slow
it runs perfectly on actual hardware though, posting from a hackintosh

>>58598347
>nobody gives a shit about you irl so you have to tripfag on an anon imageboard to feel any sense of belonging
