Intel processor?

[Joseph Chrzempiec]

hello I'm getting some miss results when searching for using old intel laptops for proxmox servers. I have a whole bunch of i3 laptops that are 4 core 4 threads and i would love to use one. However every laptop when i go into the bios to enable virtualization It says only Vt-x only. Is that all i need or I'm missing something to enable to be virtualized?

Currently i do not have any extra system or server to do some Vm testing. Sense I only need 1 core and 2GB of memory i should be okay as long as i can get it running. Can someone help me to figure this out please? I know how Amd works but not intel.

vt-x is all you need go ahead and set it up.

vt-d is for pcie passtrough, won't work on a laptop anyway.

Hello thank you. I don't need gpu passthrough. I just need to get a core or two for a vm. I do have 8 GB of memory and i found out 2GB of memory is not enough so I will assign it 4GB and 2 core which is the min to run this program. But my other question is what is the min to run proxmox for cpu cores and memory?

The requirements for Proxmox are in the documentaion: you need a free core and 1GB of memory for the host at least.
