    Is it possible to run a Windows virtual machine under Linux for games?

    I'm saving up for a new computer this summer and I'll be getting rid of Windows as my day to day desktop OS in favor of Fedora (it's the distro I've got the most experience with so far) but I'm afraid I won't be able to COMPLETELY wean myself from the yoke of MS oppression for some time yet.

    I'm pricing a new system and plan to water cool it but the case I've chosen only has one fan for cooling. Thankfully it's a 120mm so I figure I ought to be ok as far as cooling with a single 120mm radiator. I'm not an overclocker, and though I'm planning a pretty powerful build I'm hoping that...
