[Unraid 6.8.3] GPU passthrough question


Recommended Posts

Hello,

 

I test Unraid with this config:

MotherBoard : type X58, ga-x58a-ud5

Proc : I7 975 extreme

GPU : RTX2070

 

My proc doesn't have VT-D support and X58 chipset normally have it. My Mobo officially, doesn't have. But I found a modded bios to enable it.

I know that GPU passthrough need IOMMU support and UNRAID show me IOMMU enabled in the webgui.

 

My question is, for GPU passthrough do I need VT-D support for the Proc AND the MoBo ? Or VT-D on Mobo is sufficient ?

 

For the moment all my tries failed for GPU support (I have the GPU Vbios etc ...) , I can launch a VM linux directly on my computer but only with software render ...

 

Thanks for your informations

Ok thanks Squid, so it's not a bullshit from me, thanks for your concern about my hair but I'm afraid that it was too late before Unraid LOL.

I wait for an old Xeon Proc founded at good price that supports VT-d and compatible with my MoBo, maybe with the modded bios ...

For the price at worst I'll win 2 more cores.
