    https://github.com/GPUOpen-LibrariesAndSDKs/MxGPU-Virtualization - on github we have the old driver, but not support v620 card.
  • Hit and miss GIM module runtime configuration
    1 project | /r/Proxmox | 21 Aug 2022
    I have configured the GIM module following this. I am able to pass VFs through to VMs and it works great. However, I have been trying to modify the runtime options as indicated here. Some seem to work, and some don't.

    > And I understand NVIDIA is even worse re: GPU virtualization.

    Nope, it’s much better on the nvidia side actually. The latest AMD GPU with a publicly accessible GIM driver is the AMD S7150, which was released in 2016. (https://github.com/GPUOpen-LibrariesAndSDKs/MxGPU-Virtualiza...)

    > The good news is that I understand this support is actually good on the Intel side

    Not anymore. GVT-g is gone on Ice Lake (Intel 10th generation mobile, 11th gen desktop) so that you can no longer do hardware vGPU on newer Intel parts at all.

    Sad thing is that what you said used to be true.

    Meanwhile NVIDIA GRID needs licensing fees but actually works, with high end GPU options being available.
