Non passthrough VM is a cardboard facsimile when it comes to Audio/Video/3D. To set proper passthrough I'd have to get another GPU that I'd need just for this and nothing else. And if something goes to shit, I can just roll back to a recent snapshot and it's like it never happened, because I know of the thingy called backup.
Yup, a cheap sff box, much cheaper than any decent new GPU, just to keep personal stuff on. About a year with this setup now and the idea of using a VM with passthrough for the sake of runing windows inside Linux seems pretty pointless.

So to keep from having to get another GPU for one thing and nothing else, you get an entire PC...for one thing and nothing else...
