You can pick the one that best matches business continuity strategy, as well as meeting your organisational policies. VMware also provides several solutions to meet your Disaster Recovery needs. This time there was an error message (see Image 3).Virtualisation products from VMware have increasingly become an indispensable part of IT infrastructures within businesses of all sizes. With VMware Windows and Ubuntu the installation was successful, but the game did not start. With VirtualBox Ubuntu I ran into graphics glitches with Steam (see Image 2) and was unable to install any games. They should, but specifically Crysis, no. VirtualBox Windows without 3D Acceleration was unable to start any benchmarks, but it didn't have any graphics artifacts. VirtualBox Windows with 3D Acceleration enabled had serious graphics issues (see Image 1) and mediocre performance. Unfortunately the Linux version of FurMark was quite old, so the Windows results contain benchmarks with both the old and new FurMark versions.įurMark was run with 800圆00 resolution and RTHDRIBL with 640x480 resolution.
The benchmarking was performed with FurMark and the good old RTHDRIBL for Windows. These are the best graphics settings available.
The VirtualBox Ubuntu machine has VMSVGA Graphics Controller with 128MB of Video Memory and "Enable 3D Acceleration" set to "on". The first virtual machine has "Enable 3D Acceleration" set to "on" and the second one does not. The VirtualBox Windows machines have the VBoxSVGA Graphics Controller with 256MB of Video Memory. The VMware virtual machines have "Accelerate 3D graphics" set to "on" and 8 GB of graphics memory. The guest operating systems are Windows 10 Home version 20H2 and Ubuntu version 20.04.2. The virtual machines are configured with 4 CPU cores and 8GB of RAM. The host operating system is Windows 10 Pro version 21H1. The host computer has an AMD Ryzen 9 5900X with 64GB DDR4 RAM and a GeForce RTX 2070 8GB GPU. The virtualization hypervisors are the free VMware Player version 16.1.2 and VirtualBox version 6.1.22. These solutions are much more complex to set up and are out of scope of this review. There are virtualization solutions that support full GPU passthrough (requiring a dedicated GPU for the virtual machine) such as Unraid, VMware ESXi and QEMU/KVM. The comparison results are useful to know when you want to run graphics intensive workloads virtualized on a standard Windows PC. This review compares the graphics performance of VMware Player and VirtualBox. VMware Player vs VirtualBox: Graphics Performance Review
