Using GPU in Azure WVD environment

Question

Hello All,

I have two Standard NV4as_v4 (4 vcpus, 14 GiB memory) VM's in a WVD environment, I have added the AmdGpuDriverWindows Extension to both of them. I look in the Device manager and it is listed under Display Adapters as "Radeon Instinct MI25 MxGPU",

when I run dxdiag to see if it is being used, it is coming back with the "Microsoft Remote Display Adapter".

They are Windows 10 Enterprise for Virtual Desktops 64-bit (10.0, Build 19041)

Am I missing something or do i need to enable the VM to use the AMD GPU extension?

Kind Regards,
Sean Buckle

Hi, I have the same exact issue as described above. We can see the AMD GPU, but it does not seem to be fully operational. After the VM has been running for a while (couple of hours), the performance of the GPU/VM is getting quite bad (slow, black screens etc.). After a reboot, performance is restored again for some time. I've included some screenshots with (hopefully) relevant information.
