thank you for that link. Does AMD have the same shenanigans of locking out consumer grade gpu's? Intel has GVT-g vGPU virtualization which works with intel integrated graphics, it will be interesting to see what road Intel takes with their dedicated GPUs.

Unfortunately, it seems that GVT-g is dead going forward. The word is it's not coming to the latest iGPUs and they plan to "replace is with SR-IOV" which isn't the same thing and I haven't even heard of anyone getting it to work anyway.

Really stinks because I was super interested in a GVT-g on their new discrete cards.

I might be misinformed, but my understanding is that consumer AMD cards, for the most part, do not have the required virtualization hardware at all, so there is nothing to unlock.
