August 5, 20169 yr Hey everyone, i was trying to see if my GPU would work with OVMF with the least amount of effort, and i stumbled across this useful VGA Bios Collection on techpowerup.com so if you are looking to buy a GPU or use an old one, it might be a quick method (not sure how accurate) for you to determine compatibility. https://www.techpowerup.com/vgabios/ Sadly, mine is not compatible!
August 6, 20169 yr Author I only started searching about the problem when i couldn't get it to work, this is why i stumbled across that site... VGA BIOS not UEFI compatible apparently. This is my card: http://www.gigabyte.com/products/product-page.aspx?pid=5369#ov
August 6, 20169 yr Did you even try passing through without using a BIOS? What are your symptoms? Do you get no video? Does it throw an exception? FYI...the site you posted is listed in the KVM section of the unraid Wiki: http://lime-technology.com/wiki/index.php/UnRAID_Manual_6#Assigning_Graphics_Devices_to_Virtual_Machines_.28GPU_Pass_Through.29
August 6, 20169 yr Author It was just not booting the VM at all. But it looks like after some tinkering today i got it working, so hey-ho my issue is a non-issue. I have not seen that wiki, and wow it seems updated since i've last been! Hope this forums reference is still useful as when i searched for the URL it didn't come up.
