With GVT-g set up, I am now capable of creating a vGPU using my Intel UHD Graphics 620, passing it through a Windows 11 VM, and getting much better improved graphics for 3D-related applications, such as Shadertoy & Minecraft.
However, the actual speed of UIs doesn't seem to change, as mouse movement is a bit choppy as well as UI movement (i.e laggy Google Chrome UI, laggy windows UI, etc)

I currently use this XML file for my VM, however cannot find out why the UI acceleration isn't working:
