Hi,

My goal is to passthrough two GPUs to two separate Windows 11 VMs.
I’m running Proxmox 24/7 on a Ryzen 7 8700G CPU (with a Radeon 780M iGPU).

For my second Windows 11 VM, stability is my number one priority, followed by performance, as I’ll be using Sunshine/Moonlight for remote access from a thin client. I also do some video editing (FFmpeg).

My research points toward NVIDIA GPUs, and I’m hesitating between: RTX 3060 12GB, RTX 4060 8GB, RTX 4060 Ti 8GB, and RTX 4060 Ti 16GB.

Which one would you choose and why?

Thanks in advance !
 
I would go with whichever one is the least expensive. If you aren't gaming or performing AI tasks, they'll all perform the same IMO
