I haven't actually set it up yet (hardware is all in place, just haven't resolved the fucking driver issue that I would need to do so first, plus also I would need a game I want to run on Windows that I can't on Linux), but according to my reading, there are essentially two stages to it.

When you loan out the GPU, first you have to disconnect it from the host OS, then the VM automatically grabs it when it boots. When the VM shuts down, it releases the GPU, but the host doesn't automatically resume ownership of it, you have to either configure a system to automate that, or leave it on a manual control system.

Haha think I'll just stick to dual boot then but best of luck to you
