The virtual machine I installed windows on to play games with kernel-level anticheat and other such spyware apparently isn't compatible with windows 11. That's a positive for 2 reasons, which are:

  1. It can't run Windows 11, so no risk of a forced upgrade
  2. Windows won't constantly harass me to upgrade.

10/10 experience, would not give give Windows access to bare metal again.

Can you do this with a single GPU?

Yes but it is very janky, it is barely better than a dualboot.
Also most kernel anticheats will bark when they detect they are running in a VM.
