    I've tried building a system along these lines, I wouldn't recommend it to anyone without a lot of time to burn on the initial setup. To say YMMV would be a major understatement, even with AMD hardware end-to-end.

    Yeah, it's a wild frontier, but the time investment might be worth it for people that really want to avoid dual booting or duplicating hardware to have separate systems for each OS.

    Of course, if you're only using Windows for gaming, dual booting is probably the safest option because it creates an extra barrier between you and your time wasting habits. Make it more convenient to fire up Windows and a game and you might regret the lost productivity :)
