Windows emulator on ubuntu with GPU passthrough?

I have a Ubuntu and Windows dual boot, I use Ubuntu for everything except gaming.(Wine/dxvk doesn't cut it) Now I'd like to not have to reboot when I feel like playing a game, which sometimes is only 10 minutes. So I want to have a Windows 10 emulator, with GPU passthrough. My machine has a Titan Xp, but I have an additional RX480 which I am willing to use for Windows 10. So is what I want possible?
And if so, does anyone have a tutorial for it?



Thanks!



Edit:
I of course mean having an emulator(e.g. virtualbox) run Windows 10, and also have the emulator(virtualbox in this case) also pass the GPU to the VM(Windows 10). So I can just install the AMD driver on Windows, and have Windows be in full controll over it.(And thus get excellent performance)
