This guide walks you through creating a high-performance Windows 11 virtual machine (VM) on Fedora Silverblue using GPU passthrough technology. This setup allows you to run Windows applications that require dedicated graphics performance while keeping your primary system secure with Fedora Silverblue.
GPU passthrough allows your virtual machine to use your dedicated graphics card directly, providing near-native gaming and graphics performance in Windows while running on Linux. This is different from typical virtualization where graphics performance is limited.
