> flip the model from TCC to WDDM via nvidia-smi I’m not sure that’s legal. I think NV wants extra money, details there https://www.nvidia.com/content/dam/en-zz/Solutions/design-visualization/solutions/resources/documents1/Virtual-GPU-Packaging-and-Licensing-Guide.pdf https://www.nvidia.com/content/dam/en-zz/Solutions/design-vi... > C++ AMP is deprecated and going away. Indeed, but I never used that thing. > don't rely on DirectCompute DirectCompute is a low-level tech, a subset of D3D11 and 12. It’s not deprecated, used by lots of software, most notably videogames. For instance, in UE5 they’re even rasterizing triangles with compute shaders, that’s DirectCompute technology. Some things are worse than CUDA. Different programming language HLSL, manually managed GPU buffers, compatibility issues related to FP64 math support. Some things are better than CUDA. No need to install huge third-party libraries, integrated with other GPU-related things (D2D, DirectWrite, desktop duplication, media foundation). And vendor agnostic, works on AMD and Intel too.

Use: nvidia-smi -g {GPU_ID} -dm 0 Cloud providers do pay for an extensive vGPU license, don't worry about that part. > DirectCompute is a low-level tech, a subset of D3D11 and 12. D3D11. The compute subset of D3D12 is named D3D12 and directly got rolled into that. Also, you have CLon12 today which does support SPIR-V.

  > Use: nvidia-smi -g {GPU_ID} -dm 0 I think I tried that a year ago, and it didn’t work. Documentation agrees, it says “GRID drivers redistributed by Azure do not work on non-NV series VMs like NCv2, NCv3” https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/virtual-machines/windows/n-series-driver-setup#nvidia-grid-drivers https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/virtual-machines/wind... Microsoft support told me the same. I wanted NCv3 because on paper, V100 GPU is good at FP64 arithmetic which we use a lot in our compute shaders. > The compute subset of D3D12 is named D3D12 Interesting, didn’t know about the rebranding.
