- CD Projekt / Red <3.  They've done an excellent job with GOG and their games. 
I'm all about that DRM Offline Gaming lifestyle lol.

- Check out the first remark. Basically I'm passing in both the integrated and 
the dedicated card (I disabled the integrated card because I need to pass 
everything in that Bus if I want to use the mobo's USB/Sound stack which 
happens to be on there as well). I then connect my monitors HDMI cable directly 
to the dedicated card. So no RDP/VNC. It almost feels like I didn't even have 
FreeBSD installed lol. when bhyve boots up the monitor receives the signal 
automatically. I'm passing my KVM into the VM through the USB as well so my 
keyboard/mouse/sound also get passed into the VM. My server is running headless 
(I connect over SSH) so it doesn't need any graphics. However, the machine does 
have output from both cards at boot time and early on the FreeBSD boot process, 
it's only once it starts too boot that the video driver no longer sends 
anything to the cards and allows those devices to be passed through later on. 
So if there was an issue at boot time, I'll still be able to administer the 
machine. It's my home server.

- These instructions won't work for Intel/NVIDIA because they some different 
requirements and configuration options from what Corvin mentioned in his talk. 
I know some people had to patch the kernel so have some sort of KVM signature 
implemented or the NVIDIA driver wouldn't work. I'm not sure if that's still 
the case. For AMD none of that was required. It just works assuming the system 
is configured correctly it seems.

@Peter

I've heard of this before but I don't think will be using it. I'll always be 
physically present around the gaming machine and don't really need the extra 
software running on it, plus give that I'm directly wired, that would be the 
fastest performance possible given the setup. But I took a look at the page and 
based on the system requirements, I don't see why it wouldnt work ;).
