Formal Posted July 7, 2019 Share Posted July 7, 2019 Posted this in the wrong area earlier, Hi, before I splash out on building this I wanted to try and flesh out the compatibility first. im building a 7 GPU machine for animation and wanted to be able to pass through all 7 to one VM (Windows is definitely able to accept this, mac I think is troublesome) ill be using a server grade motherboard with dual xeon and 7 x16 slots (all with relevant lanes from the dual cpu) so my question is has anyone done more than 1 GPU to a VM and has anyone tried with mac? Also interested in Linux options to if it’s been tried? Thanks in advance for any help. Quote Link to comment

Jagadguru Posted August 9, 2019 Share Posted August 9, 2019 (edited) When I read your post I decided to try it. I passed through two GPU's to the same Windows 10 VM. I did not test it extensively, but it seems to work. I was able to extend the desktop across two monitors and everything. Maybe if I get a chance I will try in on MacOS. Edit: Just tried it on MacOS. Same result. It works. Edited August 9, 2019 by Jagadguru Quote Link to comment
