    I run some windows-only proprietary software. Realistically what’s the performance like with Wine or whatever it is that emulates windows?

    I run a lot of GPU accelerated CAD

      Some apps actually run faster on Wine than on native Windows, but it’s a bit a hit and miss. You should try them yourself.

      Also, dual boot is usually the best solution to begin.

      Near 100% since Wine isn’t a hardware emulator. But it depends on how well the software is supported, and CAD has historically been a sore point (but it may be better these days).

      Apps that Vulkan and OpenGL should work as usual, apps that use d3d9 are supported with GalliumNine and dxvk, d3d10 with d3d10um and dxvk and d3d11 with dxvk only.
