    on my GT73VR Titan Pro which has a 7820HK CPU, there is an option in the BIOS to enable virtualization and enable VT-D

    Let's see if someone who has the GT73VR 7RE can confirm if it's the same

    what's the difference between normal virtualization and VT-D in layman's terms bro?

    It is better to have both to avoid any functional bottleneck ..just to answer in short
    Very short version:



    VT-x: for x86 processor

    VT-i: for Itanium processor

    VT-d: for devices DMA access

    Bro if u don't mind is it possible for u to install VMWare Workstation and deploy one virtual machine on it to see if it runs fine ...

    If u can send screen shot of bios which shows both vt-x and vt-d

    Need to decide if I can buy this model or not .
