Video Card / Performance?

I'm using Proxmox 2.2-24, running several WinXP instances on a 32G system.
It works quite well.
However, a few of the VMs are pretty graphics intensive, and a bit sluggish when I VNC to them.
I'm curious about the effect the graphics card has on everything.
Initially, I didn't think it would matter since there is no physical monitor, and nothing should have to go through a graphics card to get rendered.

Is this not the case? Do VMs still offload their graphics/computations/rendering to the video card, then pipe it back through to the motherboard and sent to the VM?

Thanks!
