Curiosity: is anyone here developing inside a VM, with GPU passthrough, and with the monitor directly connected to the GPU used by the VM? (as in: showing the UI of the VM, without any need for RDP or the like)
Such a setup works (I'd know for I have one at home doing just that but it's not my main PC) but how's it like to work like that?
The GPU hooked to the hypervisor can either be on another monitor or on another input (in the latter case you'd "go" to the hypervisor by changing the monitor's input).
- thehamkercat 2y agoI have a 7800X3D with 64GB Ram, it's overkill for programming So I've installed proxmox on it to utilize it's resources for other stuff as well For my personal use, I created an Arch VM with GPU and USB PCIE passthrough, all 3 monitors directly connected to that GPU It's so seamless and fast that I don't even feel I'm working inside a virtual machine I have other headless VMs hosted to do other things (opensense etc)
- TheTxT 2y agoI used such a setup for gaming using a windows and a Linux (later proxmox) host. With everything passed through you basically don’t realize that you’re sitting in front of a VM, it’s great.
