I've been dual booting for a long time because gaming is just not a thing in Linux and will probably never be. Even games made with multi-platform engines like Unity have usually various problems in Linux which the developers either don't care to fix or don't know how to fix. With my new computer, I've planned the hardware accordingly that I can run Windows in a VM and pass a graphics card through. As most games and even lots of general usage apps don't really lean on a modern CPU at all anyways these days this works actually really well and the general speed of software (mostly games) is basically as if I would run Windows directly. Besides being incredibly comfortable for me (no dual booting anymore, Windows is basically one command away and can be shut down just as quick while I'm able to just keep doing stuff in Linux concurrently) I can also restrict access of the VM or cut it off the internet altogether. With a proper setup you could for example whitelist steam servers and just let the linux host block everything else. Also, different OS images for different uses. It's a really nice setup.
