If you were playing around in a vm thus far, and if you're ok with how the vm does, my advice would be to just stick with the vm. Provided you have a fairly modern system, which you seem to, there's really not much difference between running in a vm, and on a physical box. Arguably, running in a vm has the advantage that you have a specific set of emulated hardware. Provided that hardware works ok for you with linux, if you don't run on a physical box, you don't have to worry about trying to get actual hardware to work, especially if you didn't build or design the system yourself with the intent of running gnu/linux on it.
