Yeah, definitely switching to Linux if possible. I'm not sure how it will work with VR stuff tho.
Dualboot might be good since then you can tune windows to be a dedicated gaming OS which auto launches the needed things. I went from win10 to mint and haven't booted back into windows for months.
Cant speak to VR cos I switched to a Quest when I realised all I did was play BeatSaber, and the room with my computer is not very big.
Don't think I ever tried dual booting, only had each os on separate disk. How does it work launching specific things and booting into windows? I was thinking about using virtual Machine but heard that can be bad on performance.
I made my steam OS partition (Bazzite) the primary, created a new uefi boot partition for it (don't use the windows one, it's more hassle than help), and run a script to reboot into windows now. It works for me when I want to play a Windows only game.
