That’s awesome! I’ve been debating trying a Linux VM for gaming to avoid Windows altogether. Are you using Windows as your VM?

Ive been running a gaming VM in proxmox for months now and have really liked it. My base is am old Lenovo ThinkStation P500. Using an old GTX 1070 which is more than enough for what I play. (Minecraft, Factorio, Cities, etc)

Yes using windows 11 VM.

I’ve tried doing that too but the delay was far too much, around 3-4 seconds and the bitrate was so low it looked like a 480p stream. How did you set your proxmox?

It sounds like you didn’t set up gpu passthrough

I passed through my GPU and the SSD to the VM directly. Performance has been solid for me. With 8 cores, 32GB RAM assigned and a GTX 1070. Monitors are plugged directly into the card with the display setting in proxmox set to none since I don’t use the console screen in proxmox for the Windows VM.
