Video Description

Grab yourself a Pint Glass at https://craftcomputing.store For years, I've been obsessed with turning my homelab servers into Cloud Gaming servers. Having a headless gaming machine I can call up from any device on a moment's notice, and be able to play games from anywhere is one of my all-time goals. So when I saw an AMD Radeon Pro W5500 8GB GPU on eBay for $90, I knew what had to be done. Today, I'm going to walk through installing and setting up a Virtual Gaming Machine in Proxmox, with the use of Bazzite, Sunshine, and Moonlight... all open-source tools you can use to build your own headless Linux Gaming VM. But first... What am I drinking???
