Hello; I Fortnite on KVM with single GPU passthrough using a patched QEMU and EDK II. However I’m getting a lot of lag and only around 40–60 FPS. How could I optimize my XML configuration or anything else ?

Hello, I have an issue with single GPU passthrough. When I start the VM I get a black screen with no signal and then it returns to the Linux login screen. I followed this tutorial and I am using an RX 6600.

Hi, I would like to know if it is still possible to play Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2019 and Modern Warfare III (2023) on a VM. If so, what config should be used ?
