I do this the other way around, Ubuntu host and a KVM virtual machine controlled by virt-manager with PCIe passthrough for its own GPU and NVMe boot drive. I enjoy Linux too much for daily use (and rely on it for bulk storage with internal drives mergerfs fused together and backed up with snapraid), but I do a lot of photography and media work so I also rely on Windows. This way, I can use a KVM frame relay like looking-glass to get a latency free almost native performance windows VM inside a Ubuntu host, without the need to dual boot (but since the NVMe drive is just windows, I can always boot into windows if I please)
