I have a 2080Ti passthrough to one of my VMs as a secondary graphic card on the server.

Another card I have (primary card) is GT710. I have tried to pass it through to the VM according to spaceinvader guide (with bios dump), but I failed. The purpose was to install Parsec or Moonlight for better latency.

Now I'm looking for a replacement of GeForce GT 710 with which I could do that.

 

Any suggestion on which card can be used, and is it possible to be passthrough event being a primary card?

It has to be one slot card.

Can I passthrough RTX4000 or P2000 as the primary card?

You probably aren't getting any answers because I don't think the question as asked is answerable. Passthrough is not typically about the specific card, it's more about the motherboard, BIOS version, chipset, and CPU. If passthrough fails with one card it's unlikely to succeed just with a different card.

I updated my unraid today to 6.12.4 and was able to select now GF710 (which is in the primary slot). I was able to assign to VM this 710 card and boot the VM.

Windows 10 successfully starts with it, and detects it but it shows an error in the device manager (Windows has stopped this device error) and I'm not able to install any drivers for this graphic card.

 

2080TI in the 3rd slot after the upgrade works without issues and passes successfully as a secondary card to my other VM.

 

 

Ok I was able to fix pausing I think .. it seems it was not related to graphic card.. but still ..

 

Did everything like in this clip and did not help .. still getting error code 43
