    Threadripper GPU passthrough and NPT perf

    I've been watching this for a week now between r/amd and r/vfio it doesn't look irreconcilable but it's definitely not running out of the box either.

    Threadripper GPU passthrough and NPT perf

    I stopped screwing with ESXi / team green after the GTX480 was the last softmod to quadro card. I don't solder expensive GPUs and any company that says I need to buy the "professional" version of their product to run it in a VM at home and enforces this opinion with driver lockouts doesn't want...

    Threadripper GPU passthrough and NPT perf

    I think this belongs here and not Virtualization, mods correct me if I'm wrong. So AGESA 1.0.0.6 fixed the IOMMU isolation issues with Ryzen (and I assume TR) but I haven't seen anything since release discussing Threadripper and GPU passthrough. Seems a little strange with all those PCIe lanes...

    Passthrough Gaming Rig Upgrade

    I still don't actually understand the mechanism that causes the GRID, Quadro and Tesla (and a rather restricted subset) work and everything else nVidia to fail when AMD cards are unsupported for vDGA and seem to have way better general compatibility. Is this just blatant device ID sniping by...

    Passthrough Gaming Rig Upgrade

    I found 12GB to the be sweet spot for my gaming VM as well. :) How is ESXi compatibility with the R9 2xx / R9 3xx cards? Is it like nVidia where only a select few device IDs seem to work with passthrough? I haven't seriously considered AMD for a number of years but playing with GPUboss /...

    Passthrough Gaming Rig Upgrade

    I've lurked hardforum for a decade or more and have always gotten solid advice here so I signed up to ask this. Hopefully VM is the right place for this and not GPU. I have my ESXi setup on a box with a Xeon 1240v3, 32GB RAM and some local SSDs and a NFS NAS. Had to inject NIC/HD drivers...
