I run VFIO with GPU passthrough on QEMU/KVM. It does require some setup
but I'm able to run graphical Windows games with good performance. This
is a useful reference for getting started:

You don't need two monitors. I use a single monitor, mouse and keyboard with an HDMI 
switch (not a "KVM" switch, note) connected to my two video outputs,
one for the internal GPU and one for my Nvidia card. I manage it all
with virt-manager.
