Can I Passthrough my GPU with my specs?


Hi there,

I recently installed pop os 20.10 (Nvidia edition). I wanted to use kvm and Passthrough my GPU.

The specs I have are:

- AMD Ryzen 3 2200G (integrated graphics)
- Nvidia Quadro K5000
- Gigabyte A320M-S2H ( motherboard)

Is it possible for me to passthrough my GPU (Nvidia) and use my AMD with integrated graphics for my Linux system, with the specs I have ?

For passthrough to work it must be enabled in BIOS setup and then you must run a compatible kernel. By this I mean there are several IOMMU related features in kernel setup which must be enabled to make it possible. First part can be answered by reading the motherboard manual, and then you can just try and see if the kernel of your POP OS has all necessary options enabled.
