Only good thing about windows being so bad is that amazing feeling when I finish my homework in Solidworks (🤬) and boot back to my Linux desktop.
Can't you just virtualize it?
Virtualizing applications that use 3d graphics can be a pain
You just need to pass though a GPU
yeah but that needs a second gpu :/
Ugh, I just found this out and had to bail on the idea.
I mean, you can do it with a single gpu, it's just that the host won't have it anymore
Wouldn't the iGPU be enough for the host system? I'm assuming you can reload the standalone GPU on the host system when you're done with the task on the hosted system.
Would that be possible without restarting the system?
(I'm not as knowledgeable on Linux, so I'm curious if Linux can support such a use case)
hm yeah but hen you would need to have an i gpu in my case i don't have one but that would work especially since if you have an i gpu the big gpu is mostly used for offloading
Not really. You just enable 3d acceleration for the VM
My laptop barely runs windows unvirtualized and I don't have a PC :(
