I know, crazy question, but I was just thinking (as I'm about to start something in VirtualBox on my desktop)...

Has anyone tried running Windows in a VM passing through a video card to the guest?

I run dual video cards (quad monitors) so I could pass through a dedicated video card. Usually the other two just have remote desktops on them anyway so I could do that via proxmox command line I imagine (or install on debian).

It would be handy not to have to run a different virtualization solution on my desktop if this is a fairly easy setup - I haven't done any pass thru yet in kvm but it looks like from the forum posts it all works (Assuming hardware compatible)?
