Virtualization

One system - two players. How?

Hello. In general, a second system unit was required, but there is no place for it, and this is all temporarily ... I read about virtualization. So. Got a question. How to do it? And does it make sense.
I confess that there are tons of manuals and materiel, just to find out if it’s real or not - I haven’t read and won’t master them.
My idea is this.
There is a computer in Ryazan 7.
16 gig of RAM
GTX 1050TI The
mother supports virtualization.
Now, as I understand it, I need to install some kind of arch and start KVM on it? Under Windows, I won’t throw the second Windows into a virtual machine, right? Well, it is not necessary.
Now questions.
You must buy the second vidyuhi or you can use one (if you don’t play the second) I saw somewhere that two axes spin on one, but I didn’t understand how.
I’ll buy the second video anyway, because one guest plays warframe, the second one plays DotA and CS.
Is there a ready-made image of some kind, well, a special assembly tailored specifically for this? Maybe Nubian manuals (well, I really don’t want to kill weeks for this), then, along the way, I’ll figure it out, but diving right away is ... hard.
So I just want to roll the desired host image onto the SSD, hook up the second ssd with the system to it for the first guest (which is currently being used), and the third ssd with the new system. Hardy are shared. The second guest can even be the same arch, or the second user can connect directly to the host. For there is a pillbox under the line and there is a volcano. But there is no warframe.
Actually, the main thing is that the warframe should have priority.
Throw some kind of step-by-step guide, examples of use ...
From iron, I will buy, say, cables, Display Port Hub active usb hubs, and I will put the system unit somewhere in the middle of the apartment, dividing it into two rooms.
If anyone helps with the implementation of the project, I promise to write an excellent article with a presentation and video.

Maybe this option will suit you?
(Ps: you can enable Russian subtitles in the video settings)

There has been a solution for windows 7..10 (and it seems even for xp) for a long time - aster from ibik.ru
You connect several monitors, keyboards and mice to one computer, configure each user of the system and sit at one computer as if it were several independent ones. hdmi and usb allow you to spread users up to 10 meters (in the middle of the computer).
Once upon a time on windows7 I used it very successfully for 2 people, first with 1 video card then with two, the games went without problems ... there were no problems at all, only pluses.
Not very secure, the inserted flash drive is available to everyone at once. The Internet is also shared, but I remember exactly what aster offered for this. With sound, yes .. if you do not have monitors with your own speakers (hdmi), then you need additional sound cards.
Perhaps win10 will add problems... check out their forum.
Alternatives for windows do not yet exist, or they are complex, not effective, or simply expensive.

In general, of course, the idea is from the category of "loaf and trolleybus".
The best option would be to take a used kit for Avito and assemble it in any box (I don’t think DotA and Warframe need mega-hardware), or take a used laptop, and then sell it, since all this is temporary.
If you still do it with virtualization, then the performance will drop sharply, especially under Windows, because some virtual machines (for example, VirtualBox used to, right now, it seems to have learned) normally Win7 Aero cannot process what kind of 3D is there. The easiest option would be to take some VMWare Workstation, install it on a separate SSD, enable AMD-V acceleration, install Win 7 or even XP, install a DirectX 9 guest driver and try to run your games there, maybe even get 30fps). Well, you connect the second monitor to the free video output of the video, and forward a separate USB mouse and keyboard into the virtual machine so that only the guest system can see it.
Or you can still try the Xen hypervisor: https://habr.com/post/137327/
