Hey, All.

I'm working on getting this 1660 Super set up on my server. There is currently an NVIDIA Quadro 4000 in the server, but I'm trying to passthrough this 1660 Super to VM 202(Windows 10)

First things first, when I run lspci -v I do not see it listed at all. Shouldn't I need to see the ASUS 1660 Super listed in lspci before anything else comes into question?

I guess I'm just trying to make sure the card works. Just got it today, and I do not have another machine to try. The fans are spinning, but I'm just not seeing it from the lspci output

Thank you!

So, I took out the old(Quadro 4000), and I'm able to get video on the 1660 Super. Interesting.
 
Looks like it's showing up as 22:00.0 with a blank description: Very odd, since it doesn't actually show 1660 Super as a label.

I've ran into a bit of an issue with starting the VM. I get output to my monitor from the 1660 Super, but I'm greeted with a EFI Shell. I typ exit, and go to boot manager, and I select UEFI QEMU HARDDKISK, but nothing loads.

Any ideas?

Thank you!
 
what is the vm config? did you install the os with efi enabled? (on most os's you cannot easily switch between bios/efi)
