Hello,
We are considering creating a cloud of GPU enabled remote desktop VMs. Instead of RDP, we are using an "ultra-low latency solution". I'm quite keen to plan this based on the current AMD hardware. However, I'm not quite sure even where to start with planning the hardware. With Nvidia, the information is a bit more available, but with AMD, there is a ton of questions, we are not able to find answers to. Is there someone who can advise us here. At prima vista here are some of the actual topics:
- Which GPUs are appropriate?
- Because of the streaming we will heavily rely on the "hardware video encoding" of those GPUs. Which GPUs offer sich capabilities.
- As we want to virtualize several users on a single GPU, how many fps in total can the GPU handle (e.g. 5 users per GPU * 60 fps = total of 300 fps)
- How much a single server with specific specs will costs
- How much a single GPU costs.
- Can we use a large number of retail-grade GPUs, and will it be at any value at all in comparison with datacenter grade GPUs
- Are there any licensing issues with using retail GPUs in a datacenter?
- Are there any additional license costs associated with the GPU virtualizations (Nvidia licenses are outraging here)
- Which hypervisors are supported
- Can we white label AMD Link, if we found it viable?
- How is the AMD partner program works?
This is what just appears at a "prima vista". Any idea who can help with obtaining this information?
Thank you in advance! :)
Solved! Go to Solution.
Contact AMD directly through their corporate site: Contacts | AMD
Select your region or country from there and hopefully you can get an answer.
If that link doesn't work try: https://www.amd.com and scroll down to "contact us".
Here, I don't think anyone can answer you questions, since we're mostly regular users helping other users solve problems related to AMD products and not sales.
Please send me PM with your contact information.

Thank you mackbolan777,
I'll try it
No problem and good luck! Sounds like a cool project.
Please send me PM with your contact information.
Sounds great. Just... I can't find where to send a PM from. Can you elaborate, please? Also, my email is in my profile, if this will help.
Thank you!
I don't see any email address of yours in your profile
Ah. Yes. It is in the "private stats". OK then - we can use LinkedIn to "initiate" - https://www.linkedin.com/in/zlatko-zahariev/
... or you can visit https://rouster.eu/ and find more contacts (phone and email) at the bottom of the page (in the footer).
Thank you!
