Earlier quoted context omitted.

I'd argue virt-manager's UX is a little clunky, but that doesn't justify going that far.

Clunky? More like spartan. I can't even set basic things such as port forwarding.

You can do a lot of things in Preferences --> Resources --> Edit Configuration.

Las time I tried Boxes, Win10 in it don't have internet access. VM has no problem with that. However... Damn GPU pass-trough is so nerdy, that I give up and had to stay with Win as my main OS (because of Adobe that I would like to use on linux).

Boxes really isn't designed to enable easy GPU passthrough. It requires a lot of additional configuration on the host system as well, not just the VM.

Virtualization of Win on linux with GPU pass-through generally is not designed to be easy at all. It's actually disappointing.
