Something worth doing for better latency is an IOMMU attached
networking device.<br>
The best choice for performance/latency is an SR-IOV networking

<pre>Just to clarify, you did repair the steam service in an elevated
command prompt/as admin, not a regular one? I've never had this problem
occur and have it not solved by a repair, at least it should work long
enough to finish your match. It does sound like this is an actual issue
with playing in VMs being flagged in the first place though. I just did
another 45mins of Valve DM in my VM without issues, I'll keep playing in VM
when I play to gather some more info. I call qemu through the CLI, my CPU
line is: -cpu host,hv_time,hv_vapic,hv_<wbr>relaxed,hv_spinlocks=0x1fff, I
don't hide KVM. I think we'd probably get better results emailing the VAC
and/or CSGO teams than submitting a ticket. We only want to use one
instance of the game, so hopefully if they're at least aware of this use
case they can keep it in mind during future developments. Or if they fixed
the native client that would be nice....

So far i'm in a game, but it typically takes anywhere from 30

hour to get VAC'd based on the last 3 attempts.
