How will 5 desktops benefit me, if I need a server that will allow 5 sessions. there will be 100 clients that have the ability to connect but only 5 simultaneous sessions. so that is not a valid option.
The server you copy paste , has fast hard drive which I wrote that I won't need so it's just a waste of money. also I wrote that I have the graphic cards so why will I buy new ones?

VDI was on prior questions, I don't think the datastore is in my budget.
I just need a good server for testing purposes.

VDI = Virtual Machines with Assisted Graphics (e.g. hardware GPU).
How will you remotely access the virtual machines with the GPU hardware ?

I only tried , remote desktop which wasn't bad. I tried it with the m6000 and I'm planning on getting two P6000.
I may want to try creating Virtual machines and remoting into them.

I don't know. I want to test all of these.
the only one that i've tried was RDP.
the only one that i've tried was RDP.
that's the problem if you use RDP it will not use the GPU!

So I guess it was remoteFX cause I saw the dedicated graphic card in the RDP session. and it worked not bad it all.
