    How is the performance on a VM? I use Windows for VR and Musicproduction. Like 10%, 20% performance dip?

      I don’t know, I still haven’t done this yet!

      But my needs might be different from yours. In my case, my music production skills just require an old version of FL Studio. I’m sure it will run fine in a VM.

        Yeah, I just upgrades my CPU, and even on my old one everything worked fine.

        One more question though: why go the VM route instead of dualbooting? I guess mostly so you still have acces to all Linux stuff while using Windows?

          Correct. I just want to remain in Linux. Plus the Windows OS will be unmaintained, so I will never connect it to the internet. So I’d be without Internet meanwhile I’m in the other partition. A VM solves that.
