Since I had already "played" GVT-g about a half of year, it's so excited that Mediated device interface will come out at new kernel release. For Intel GVT-g, now everything feels more stable since 2016Q3 release. Before that, the host may crash if VM running some 3D applications. Only few problems

You WILL see it on consumer grade GPUs on a massive scale, as any Intel platform with a Broadwell or Skylake Processor with IGP will have access to Intel GVT-g. While the raw power of the Intel IGPs is a fraction of a bigger Radeon or GeForce, they are rather on par with features, and as long th
