dvv47 Posted March 6, 2016 Share Posted March 6, 2016 Hello, Anyone tried to run Virtual Machine Parallels or VmFusion directly on eGpu card? For using all nvidia technologies like Cuda and nvenc in VM with Windows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dschijn Posted March 6, 2016 Share Posted March 6, 2016 There is no way to connect a TB device directly to the VM. IT might work with unRAID, but that isn't really a VM. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dvv47 Posted March 6, 2016 Author Share Posted March 6, 2016 (edited) Also with Nvidia Quadro? I heard that quadro support some virtualization technologies. And thanks for replay, i will read about unRAID. Edited March 6, 2016 by dvv47 upd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morv Posted March 6, 2016 Share Posted March 6, 2016 You still have a huge performance boost if you run Parallels on the external display so that it's accelerated by the eGPU, I tested this out of curiosity some months ago -> https://www.techinferno.com/index.php?/forums/topic/8664-parallels-desktop-uses-limited-egpu/ 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dvv47 Posted March 6, 2016 Author Share Posted March 6, 2016 (edited) Morv, yes your post prompted me to get this configuration) but I also require the advanced features for programming on the Nvidia cards. At this moment i use two computers for that, and its not very convenient Edited March 6, 2016 by dvv47 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
