Hey guys, recently my dad and I decided to build a double-headed gaming rig based on the one built by LinusTechTips. It is currently running two Windows 10 VM's on top of UnRaid 6.1.9
The specs are:
Intel Core i7-5930K @ 3.50GHz 3.50GHz
32GB total RAM, 12.5GB per VM
2X Intel 530 Series 480GB SSD (These are our Cache Devices)
2X WD Red 3TB NAS HDD (These are our Array Devices)
VM1:
Nvidia GeForce GTX 980 Ti
Cores 0-4 pinned to this machine
VM2:
Nvidia GeForce GTX 960
Cores 6-10 pinned to this machine
Cores 5 and 11 are left for UnRaid to use.
So now on to the issue. When we attempt to run both machines at the same time, they run fine. But as soon as my brother starts playing or downloading/updating a game on VM2 while I try to watch a YouTube video on VM1, both machines stutter and slow down. Same thing happens in reverse. As another example, last night I was playing Deus Ex: Human Revolution on VM1 and after getting through the first mission (and this happens A LOT), the machine began to lag, and any audio that was produced sounded as if it was in slow motion.
This is the first time we've attempted anything like this, so of course there are going to be bugs. If I have left out any information, let me know.
