Kyeah but the whole point of running windows in a VM was to avoid the AC cat and mouse game
VYeaaah
Kif I have to go out of my way to get them working and keep them working, I might as well not play them
VBluedragon got a GTX-Era tesla card
VvGPU is cool
5I saw level1 techs recent video that intels arc gpus just work now and can be sliced 16 times
VOh fr?
5Yep, free
VBlue dragon also shown me this
VGitHub
A vendor neutral GPU multiplexing tool driven by VFIO & YAML. - Arc-Compute/LibVF.IO
5Cause per wendle nvidia charges out the ass for subscriptions to do that
5Hmmm maybe by the time I build my next gaming pc
VI don't know why I'm tempted to do it, I just think the idea of that setup is cool. Even if it is a pain in the ass.
VStick it to the man
5In the meantime I run sunshine on a Debian server with a dummy dongle so I can use windows and Linux at the same time like a freak
5But it’s such a better solution than using a kvm on a side monitor
VSunshine is pretty goated
VNeed to use it more
VI don't use my GPU enough on my PC, might as well put it to some use on my steam deck
SI've just been using my gaming pc as a headless gaming server with sunshine since getting a handheld. it's pretty great
5It’s bananas how well it works. Hard line Ethernet to a 5700g Debian box and there’s zero latency and artifacting. It’s 1 to 1 and I don’t even have a dedicated gpu
VWhat I was tempted to do was take my 5850U thinkpad and replace my PC with that
VThen my PC would just be proxmox and then streamed to whatever
VStill tempted
VI need a thinkpad dock though
NGet a USB C Dock Gen2
NThey're pretty cheap and very nice
VI want too
VJust, y'know, child with no paying job
NCan drive a single Ultrawide really fine
Nat 60hz
NOh damn I thought they got cheaper
VWhat's the max they do?
NFor the refresh rate I don't know do
NBut I think 4k60
Nor 3 1080p displays
VI want 3440x1440 at at least 120 + a secondary 1080p display
VWhich I could use the laptop itself for
Nthat should probably work
VAnyway yeah, still gonna need like £40-50 to get one
VPlus maybe £5 for the HDMI dummy lol
5I would like 1 computer that is actually like 10 computers. That’s the dream. But then I realized when 1 breaks then 10 breaks. So I held off on my proxmox based goals
Kvirtualize my life
5And then let me remote that virtual life from a laptop or tablet
5My current laptop keeps running out of ram so I moonlight in my server with 64gb to browse Firefox
VA framework 13 + eGPU is what I want. Being able to just connect it and boot a Windows VM (or just use Linux) is appealing.
Sone time I took my gaming pc and ran ubuntu/kvm on it then passed my video card / usb ports to the vm running windows annnd it was pretty great actually. had to compile a kernel with some pulse audip fixes to get the audio to not be choppy
KI tried to go that route when rembrandt launched, but eGPU was really finicky under linux in my experience and I wasn't willing to put up with running windows
VIf I'm just passing it through to a VM I'm hoping it'll be alright
