Dual-boot or Wine for gaming?

Do you guys recommend dual-booting a Linux distro on a secondary drive, or running Linux as a main OS, using Wine for Windows applications?

I've wanted to make the switch for a very long time, just worried about compatibility issues or even performance loss in gaming using Wine.

  • I have a secondary drive with windows installed, in case I ever run into a game I need it for but I have yet to run into a game I want to play that doesn't run through wine. I guess it's because I only really play single player games and nothing with funky anti cheat, that's usually where compatibility issues happen.
