Hi everyone!

I am looking to make a gaming VM and I encounter a big lack of fluidity in the VM. I am using Windows 11 as VM. I don't know what I should give as information since it's the first time I'm on the forum, so I'll give it to you.

I also have a problem with my Nvidia Quadro 5000. I have already asked the question on this topic --> i'm doing GPU passthrough wrong

Thanks
 
How do you connect to your VM?
Does it have enough RAM/CPU?
What exactly constitutes lack of fluidity, how and when do you notice it?
 
In my opinion Win VMs only feel snappy when using GPU passthrough and not using VNC. Try it with something like 8+ GB RAM, 4+ vCPUs, CPU type set to "host", a GPU passed through and parsec as the remote desktop client.

- I connect my VM via Microsoft Remote Desktop.
- I use 11.81Gib of RAM and 8 cores.
- The lack of fluidity seems when I want to access very basic things like accessing the different menus, etc. You can clearly see the difference.

see my config.

As I said, in my first message, I encounter an error 43 with my GPU.
