2 Gamers 1 CPU?!?!?

Hi y'all, Matti6005 here!!!!

I've been wondering how would you set up a "2 Gamers 1 CPU" setup like linus did with his "7 Gamers 2 CPU's".... I remember him saying that he used virtual machines but I don't know how he made the keyboards and mice go to each

individual vm?!?!?! please help!!

 

I would have a guess that I need a good pc in order to do so, I have a Beast Mudatrucka of a PC so I guess it can handle it

here are the specs:

Asus x99 Pro

i7 5820k clocked to 4GHz

32GB 1866Hz Ram

2x GTX 980Ti

5TB Memory

480GB SSD Intel 730 series

Corsair HX1200i PSU

Corsair H100i GTX   A.I.O

2X Asus PB287Q 28" 4K monitors (p.s. I don't  expect them to run in 4k)

 

 

Thanks!

theres already a 2 gamers 1 cpu video on the channel, with more detail than the 7 gamers one.

 

but yeah.. be prepared for problems, the specific features in unraid VMs used for this have been in virtualbox for quite some time, but the virtualbox community would rather see it pulled because its very, very iffy.

this also works with only 1 gpu. not that well but i did it. Softxpand is a software you would need for that. also a dedicated usb card and a dedicated usb or pci soundcard is required.
