You can run a Windows VM with KVM and pass through your GPU for Gaming or other GPU-intensive tasks. It works surprisingly well.
To be honest it's quite PITA to make it work this way. I chose to not play games that don't work on Linux at all.
It took me like 3 hours, and if I had realized that I need to enable IOMMU in the BIOS it would have been 15 minutes.
Can you drop a link? It is best if it is Arch linux link. Thanks.
