RE: [Xen-users] PCI Passthrough to Windows DomU with iCore and P55chipset ?

["Robert Dunkley" <Robert@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Velten,

VT-d support is not mentioned in the tech spec for the dp55kg so I would not 
risk it unless some one here has tried it and knows it works.

Server equivalent like one of these would be a better choice (They specifically 
support VT-d):
