Higher FPS in virtualbox?

[MiszS]

Is it possible to get more than 60FPS in virtualbox, or any other hypervisor for that matter? I have a 360Hz monitor, and the only thing that moves at that frame rate is the cursor, while i'm in a virtual machine

You'd need to have hw acceleration on the VM, which would require either GPU paravirtualization or GPU passthrough, and then plug the GPU output into a monitor just for the VM itself (or use some solution like looking glass).

 

tldr; no, you can't change the refresh rate on virtualbox, and afaik no other hypervisor either.

damn that sucks, i tried doing the gpu passthrough, but my bios literally doesn't have the option for it, and i don't rlly want to sacrifice 1 monitor, to get higher fps lol
