look at multiseat software. This way you can share one gpu, and don't have to setup vms on the pc to use it.

Hey guys,

 

So I have a friend over at my house. We have 2 mouses, 2 keyboards, 2 screens, but we only have one computer. Is there a way for us to play both on the computer both with our own peripherals? So the screen would basically split, only difference being that it's one computer doing all the work.

I hope I worded the question in an understandable way xD.

 

Thanks in advance!
