New PC

[jval]

Hi,
I’m planning to buy one of these mini PCs:

• Acemagic F1A i9-12900H (32GB RAM + 1TB SSD)
• Acemagic F2A Ultra 5 125H (32GB RAM + 1TB SSD)

Both models have two HDMI outputs. My idea would be to connect the same TV with both outputs:

• HDMI 1 → used by Proxmox host console
• HDMI 2 → passed through to a Windows or Linux VM

Has anyone tested if GPU passthrough (Intel iGPU) works on these devices, and if it’s possible to dedicate one HDMI port directly to a VM while still using the other one for the Proxmox host?

Any experience, tips, or confirmation would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

It is not possible to output the screens of multiple virtual machines via HDMI.

This is true for any single gpu.

Multiple gpu's are required.

vgpu (i915-sriov-dkms/nvidia vgpu): proxmox screen output via HDMI. The screen of the virtual machine is not output via HDMI; it can be used for processing and encoding/decoding with the gpu.

gpu (intel igpu/amd igpu/nvidia gpu): One virtual machine screen per gpu can be output via HDMI.

Direct Intel igpu pass-through works on Windows virtual machines running on Proxmox VE 8, but currently does not work on Proxmox 9.
