VFIO GPU Passthrough Setup

<< This guide was made for intel systems. >>

• Firstly, set your igpu to the default in bios. I'd recommend plugging it into a secondary port on your monitor if one is available.

• /etc/default/grub:

 GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="intel_iommu=on iommu=pt modprobe.blacklist=nouveau,amdgpu,radeon"

• /etc/modprobe.d/vfio.conf:

CHANGE IDS TO THOSE OF THE GPU (lspci -nnk)

 blacklist nouveau
 blacklist amdgpu
 blacklist radeon
 options nouveau modeset=0
 options vfio_pci ids=10de:1b80,10de:10f0,1002:67ef,1002:aae0
