Hello everyone,
I’m a passionate tinkerer when it comes to hardware and software, so it was only logical that Proxmox would win my heart.
I’ve built a gaming VM that actually works really well — even games with VM anti-cheat systems don’t detect that it’s running in a virtual machine.
However, I’m now having an issue with one specific game, and I’m wondering whether it’s my setup (the VM) or the game itself.
Could you help me check if there’s anything in my setup that still needs fixing?
Proxmox version: 9.0
My system:
3DMark benchmark scores:
https://www.3dmark.com/compare/spy/59746088/spy/59725874
(The 2nd result is the VM, the 1st is bare metal.)
I hope you can help me out!
Best regards,
Marco
