I still feel like I should give it a try and just have two computers: productivity and gaming. That way I spend less time on a Microsoft product.
If you want to start using Linux, and you're not trying to use it for gaming, I'd run it in a VM. You can even then boot your computer off the same Linux image that you run in the VM, if you set the thing up right.
I run Linux all the time, but I've never had the inclination to try and game on it. I do keep separate PCs for gaming just because gaming and all the twiddling you have to do tend to interrupt actual work. Make you reboot, and shit.
