Just an update. Unraid -- still having issues getting the gpu passthrough but the advice I have received has been great. Discord has bee a great help too. I am getting my containers up and running as I continue to make the transition. Now beginning to suspect the hdmi ->DVI cable I am using might be an issues so tried another hdmi to hdmi from gpu to monitor so I can try each port -- but had to stop my test -- do to life issues. I am carving time out this weekend to give it another go. Also have another gpu to passthrough but was holding off till I got the windows for gaming up and running. Ultimate goal is windows on one gpu and Mac on another.

Thank You for your reply. I am able to remote in with nomachine on the local network with the VNC. When I removed VNC graphic and go with just the gpu -- its not picking up or recognizing the gpu. I connect but the resolution is like 800x600 or something. When I go to Device Manager -- nothing is listed for Display Adapter. I will give this a go and see by using the four ports available. I even tried using a different vbios to see but still no luck. At least I know on remote log I am able to connect -- just gotta get the drivers on figure out which hdmi port to use.

did you every find a solution. Having similar issue with gtx 1070

Having similar problem. Wondering if you found a solution. My gpu is gtx 1070

On the new VM I created this time it automatically installed the NVIDIA drivers so I was hopeful but when I remove the VNC from the number one spot -- and make another attempt to connect as you can see I do not get an option to connect to the VM but the GPU show up under the graphics.

I have tried creating a new VM with OVMF & SeaBIOS -- with no change. I even tried setting MOBO to internal graphics so the GPU is not in use -- and still nothing, but I am not sure. The VNC Console is visable when using the graphics with VNC but its not present when only with gpu and still says start. I am on another computer on the network and able to log in and see the Unraid but I am not able to access. I have been searching high and low for answer but unsure if this is expected as none of the videos I watched indicated. One of the reasons looking to go with Unraid is the easy use for newbies. Prior I was using Linux Arch with BareMetal Windows and macOS as I migrate to having one system to do many things. I game on windows and do everything else on Linux and macOS.

Hello all, let me start out by saying thank you for the support provided here. I have looked up many things to learn. I am no IT expert and have limited knowledge but love learning what I need to learn and keep detail notes of what has worked and I have managed to fix things. For the last week I have been struggling to get my GTX 1070 to passthrough on a windows VM Many say its simple -- I keep hitting a road block. Ohhh and thank you SpaceInvaderOne for the videos -- I watch I mimic and I learn. Love tinkering!! And yes I have tried all his tips on the passthrough -- with no luck. I can get the VM to work with VNC and as the gtx1070 as the second graphics card. It was suggest to download and install the drivers manually -- i have done that and still issues when I remove the VNC and make the gpu primary. They show up in the xml with the dumped rom I made. I am still baffled as to why. The logs gives this: -device '{"driver":"vfio-pci","host":"0000:02:00.0","id":"hostdev0","bus":"pci.3","addr":"0x0","romfile":"/mnt/disk1/isos/vbios/NVIDIA.GTX1070.8192.160520.rom"}' \ -device '{"driver":"vfio-pci","host":"0000:02:00.1","id":"hostdev1","bus":"pci.4","addr":"0x0"}' \ -sandbox on,obsolete=deny,elevateprivileges=deny,spawn=deny,resourcecontrol=deny \ At first I thought its the dumped rom, so I did it again and even tried one from techpowerup and still have the same issue. I have tried to look up the issue but find limited information Any help will be gladly appreciated
