I was thinking of doing that once I get my new pc. But having to close and reboot a pc every single time I want to play one of those games is quite a pain (certainly when wanting to do it with friends)
If I was able to just have a windows VM running while keeping Linux on my other monitors it’d be fine tbh

Why wait? Hard drives don’t have compatibility issues, and you can always just use clonezilla to copy and paste the system to a new NVME SSD later on if you like.
As for the VM it’d probably be better the other way around, gaming on VMs is not that great an experience and gpu passthrough is complicated to setup.
Because I just plain don’t have the time right now. I’m busy with buying an apartment and getting all of that set up while also starting a new project at work. When I have time to relax I want to relax and not have to setup an entire new PC.
I want to get the new pc after the moving is done as long as I have budget left, so it would come at the same time as when I would be interested in putting the effort in to setting up dual booting.
I’ve tried using Linux in Virtualbox on windows and use that for anything but gaming but its just plain annoying working like that certainly with multiple monitors.
Setting up dual boot takes like an hour. But yeah, there’s no rush to it, linux will still be there tomorrow. I don’t recommend buying a new pc and changing OS at the same time though. You don’t want to test your new hardware on a system you’re not familiar with.
