Fedora, it fucking slaps and worked right out of the box. I'm using it for work and play on my main rig! I dual boot for some very specific hardware things that are not normal, but other than that it's been seamless! When I booted into Windows 10 again, they auto installed copilot... Glad to be done with this crap.

Qemu is the virtualization software on the backend. When you have a problem you can look it up like that and find lots of help. Virt-manager is the front end you can control it with.

Once you made a vm profile or whatever, there’s an option way down at the bottom in virt-manager that lets you pick devices to directly pass on to the virtualized system.

The only thing I’d suggest is making sure you have enough ram to block out some decent amount for your windows vm. Ten “will” boot up with just two gigs but I ended up allocating eight to it so it could actually run updates and function.

Yeah I’m sure you’ll be fine with that.
