Hi Guillaume, The implementation of vGPU is entirely within XenServer (the hypervisor and toolstack parts) but you will need the HDX 3D Pro stack to be able to take full advantage of the technology. XenDesktop is being modified to interface to the new toolstack extensions for vGPU and will be available as part of the announced tech. preview very shortly.
