Im pretty sure this method utilizes RDP. I’m thinking about getting an Intel ARC380 GPU for PCI-E pass through to a windows VM and doing the same thing. I’ve tested this with an Nvidia Tesla k80 (though it’s not a very practical card to have on a desktop). You should be able to get enhanced performance out of the VM if you enforce video encoding on GPU via group policy.
The only downsides are :
- passing certain peripherals through RDP fails on Linux from my experience (for example, USB DAC, Xbox 360 USB controller). Your mileage may vary.
- absolute mouse position doesn’t work over RDP so don’t try this with any games that need a mouse for camera control (fps) it simply won’t work. If you want to game, lookingglass would probably be better for that but I haven’t tested that yet.
