I'm trying to figure out what the best options are for Discrete Device Assignment (DDA) of GPUs in Hyper-V Server for light workloads. For virtualised office server workloads GPU acceleration is completely unnecessary, but for VDI more and more client computing applications expect a bare minimum GPU which a GPU-less Hyper-V host isn't capable of meeting, resulting in frequently poor VM performance. The threshold for DDA GPU passthrough appears to be extremely expensive - we had this tested and working when Server 2016 was released using consumer hardware, but Microsoft and AMD have disabled that now (and nvidia has never allowed it to work).
So, can anyone point us in the right direction - what is the cheapest graphics card that DDA will work with?
Thanks,
Trevor
