Uses a dedicated graphics card, has like 3% cost.
Bonus is you don't have to care about updates and viruses/trojans.
Disk C with OS is just a raw file, that you can copy at will.
- GuB-42 4y agoWhat is the cost when it comes to disk I/O? I found the overhead to be significant in VMs. Personal impression, no metrics. I am also talking about standard OS-based VMs where the image is a file, not hypervisors. It is becoming more and more relevant now that we have ridiculously fast SSDs and games take advantage of them. It was, after all, a big selling point of the PS5.
- sampa 4y agoyou can pass-through a whole additional nvme ssd if you find a normal "raw file as partition" on your ssd isn't enough for you. PS use virtio driver for a "raw file disk" for best speed. PPS Basically qemu-kvm/libvirt on Linux is a go-to solution for games.
