GPU Specification
What is GPU Specification?
A GPU specification defines the frame per second (FPS), video memory, resolution, and other configuration settings of a physical or virtual GPU. GPU specifications are categorized into physical GPU specifications and virtual GPU specifications. ZStack Cloud supports GPUs installed on hosts. In ZStack Cloud, you can directly assign a single physical GPU to a VM instance, or share it among multiple VM instances running on the same host.
- Physical GPU specification: defines the FPS, video memory, resolution, and other configuration settings of a physical GPU.
- vGPU specification: defines the FPS, video memory, resolution, and other configuration settings of a virtual GPU virtualized from a physical GPU.
Manage a GPU Specification

The following table lists the actions that you can perform on a GPU specification.
| Operation | Description |
|---|---|
| Enable GPU Specification | Enable a disabled GPU specification. Once enabled, it can be used to allocate GPUs to VM instances. |
| Disable GPU Specification | Disable the selected GPU specification. Once disabled, it cannot be used to allocate GPUs to VM instances. |
| Set ROM | Set a ROM for the GPU specification, used for GPU passthrough. Note:
