Gaming with UnRaid/Virtualized Gaming PC

First of Yes a lot of people did this before but as I will mention multiple Time I wanted to see for myself what I can expect from a virtualized Gaming System. Let us talk about Gaming and Virtualization. In this Video I created a new Virtual Machine on my HP Z820 Workstation and paired it with my Asus Strix 1070. I did this as a little experiment for myself because i wanted to see first hand What performance I can expect and how good games support Xeon Processors. To my surprise a lot of what i tried worked without a Problem. I expected the Nvidia GPU to throw a Code 43 but for whatever reason it did not. Also I expected gaming performance to suffer because of the low boost clock speed of 3 GHz but the games i tested for myself off camera like Doom and Battlefield 1 saw even a slight performance improvement over my regular 4770k but i also know that there are enough games out there that rather prefer Clock Speed.I would not say it will be totally worth it going for a xeon processor for gaming especially with Ryzen/Threadripper and the Core I9 line up offering higher clock speeds and the high end stuff even having more cores but it is a interesting thing to look into and experiment with consider old servers and workstations are getting cheaper by the day.

Important things I learnt from this experiment:

• UnRaid wants one GPU for itself
• Buy good Quality PCIe USB Cards
• You need an extra mouse and keyboard to configure the Ubuntu VM
• It is definitely possible and not that hard. One could even say it is very easy.
• Would I use it as a Daily driver is the Workstation wouldn't be so loud and I had the correct Adapter? Yes absolutely
