While more difficult or perhaps not mature yet, well maybe not, other PCI devices (USB, SATA drives, etc.) can also be hacked. So it appears security isn't the problem so it must be complexity although users are getting it working because zen supports it. I am sure I am not the only one that would like GPU passthrough working without all of the headaches. No more suggestions or discussions from me. I just asked the question because I wanted to see if this community had changed. I am going back to lurking, sorry for the bother.
