Thank you for the post. Can you elaborate on how you define "desktop performance"? Do you mean 2d functions like window dragging/resizing, window scrolling, keyboard/mouse input, etc or do you mean things like 3d performance and or video playing?
I get conflicting info about installing GPU cards in the esx hosts. Some people say you get no display performance improvement, just greater VM density. Others state that you do get a performance gain. Cards are expensive to purchase just to try and see what happens. And we have 3 esx hosts so we would need 3 cards. Also, how does it work are there a certain # of VMs you can run per card?
Thanks.
