From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

i use virt manager for this, not what you want but just try it, it is a lot faster than virtual box
Is this usable for gaming?
If you have a desktop and can install a dedicated GPU for Gaming, libvirt should be able to game a full speed
Will battle eye and other anti cheat software work?
Sure. Why not. The game wouldn't know you're in a VM. The GPU is presented to Windows so it SHOULD all just work. There's plenty on Youtube for getting this to work.
Okay i will try that. Thank you so much you helped me a lot.
It can easily see you're in a VM. For example, the OVMF UEFI firmware is a dead giveaway. Nobody runs that on physical hardware.
