WINSRV25 GPU support for DDA\GPU-P Intel ARC GPUs

Godspeed

What GPUs in the Intel ARC range support GPU-P or DDA as I'm more interest in DDA support as I want to passthrough the GPU to a VM running SRV25 or WIN11 for AI to use with Foundry Local or Ollama.

This will be managed via windows admin centre: Partition and assign GPUs to a virtual machine in Hyper-V | Microsoft Learn

The goal is to have a Hyper-V VM dedicated to AI LLMs utilising the GPU vRAM so looking at alternative to Nvidia as the dominance is ridiculous. This has already been tested using the Arc Pro A40 which i have provided a link below so you can read their test results.

The main goal as aforementioned is to use DDA predominated assigned to a single GPU to a VM for LLMs
