You need XP compatible GPU Drivers for GPU-Passthrough, latest supported GPU and GPU drivers from AMD; its 200 series and from nVidia; its 900 series. For more information about this you can [https://techpowerup.com/forums/threads/newest-graphics-card-that-supports-windows-xp.256433/ use this link].
QEMU-3dfx's advantage is "QEMU MESAGL/3Dfx Glide pass-through". The project took on the troubles to support the legacy of vendor-specific OpenGL extensions that matter for PC games. Past and existing solutions (VirtualBox VBoxVGA's ChromiumGL, VMware SVGA3D and QEMU Virgil 3D) are all based on API "re-rendering" rather then "direct forwarding".<ref>[https://github.com/joncampbell123/dosbox-x/issues/3405#issuecomment-1328235348 javispedro's comment about Virtual GPU adapters]<br/>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TsszZ260o2g KJ Liew's "QEMU Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic (2003) -- Tribute to NVIDIA OpenGL" video description]</ref>
With Windows host and "QEMU + WHPX" [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T43ni7mssww&lc=Ugw2qKkJVn3eSW7ZJ0p4AaABAg.9g4VM28d9_o9kUveV6vMMD it will be much slower performance wise compared to Linux host and QEMU + KVM]. You will have to stay with QEMU TCG entirely until you manually switched to 'ACPI PC' kernel. The starting 'ACPI Uniprocessor' kernel does not boot on QEMU WHPX.
