Is it possible to forward a single video card to Xen?

Recently, more and more often I see Windows crashes, bluescreens, and I don’t want to toil every time with reinstalling Windows, but simply switch to Linux (now there are 2 systems in parallel).
I saw some articles about how people forward the second video cards to virtual machines, I would like to clarify whether it is possible to disconnect the video card from the host when starting the virtual machine and forward it to the virtual machine?
And all the time in the articles about video card forwarding I saw screenshots of the Windows assessment, they say everything was thrown, but no one unsubscribed, is it possible to play lossless in such Windows? (In this case, my conscience torments me for spending 2k on Gta 5 and the impossibility of running it on Linux , I would like to at least go through the virtual machine)

I have ESXi installed on my home computer and the video card is forwarded.
You can play, but from time to time the forwarded video card falls off or the keyboard with mouse or sound falls off, then you have to reboot the virtual machine or the entire host.
We must also remember that not all hardware supports forwarding.
Personally, I would go nuts with BSODs and leave the idea of ​​switching to Linux, since there is a need for certain software
