I have never used Wine personally, but in theory the performance should decrease, simply because everything has to be "translated" first through the Wine API. but well, if you have 40-50 fps in the end it's still well playable imo...with my old g-card I had to play Wolfenstein Enemy Territory with 25 fps.. :lol:

Virtual OS + Gaming = bad combo ^^

old 2D games might work though...hard to get anything else working
