To be honest, I ended up ditching unraid and installed Windows using Storage Spaces instead. Then built a dedicated small form factor gaming machine that's attached directly to my TV. I still stream when I travel but now I do it directly from my gaming machine rather than from a VM. The hours of troubleshooting and aggravation just wasn't worth it in the end.

I can't for the life of me get this to work. Recently upgraded my Unraid Server to the following specs: CPU: 12700K MB: Asus H670 D4 Plus (original bios) 128GB DDR4 Memory GPU: AMD 6950XT Reference model On my old system I was running a RTX 2060 Super for a VM I used for gaming and never had any real issues The transition to the new hardware was fairly smooth. All of my dockers came back up, my other VMs are working that don't have any GPUs passed through to them. It was a basic lift and shift and everything seemed to come back without any issues. On my new system though, I can't get this 6950xt to work in a Windows 11 VM. I'm constantly getting Error Code 43. I've tried turning resize bar on and off, followed several guides (including a write up on this forum from a user with a 5700XT). I've blown the VM away and rebuilt it from scratch. It doesn't have any of the Windows OEM AMD drivers installed and I made sure to turn that off before connecting it to the internet. Current drivers installed are the 23.2.2 Adrenaline editions. Here is the XML of the VM: <?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?> <domain type='kvm' id='3'> <name>GAMING-VM</name> <uuid>42d24233-497d-a6fc-2d48-2ea7e2c8a595</uuid> <metadata> <vmtemplate

Unraid? They're just hit or miss? It seems that other folks have had luck with AMD cards without much tinkering around. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
