- Does Windows 365 VMs leverage any GPU for better performance of UC apps like Teams and Zoom?
JJGuirolaMicrosoft
Windows 365 is optimized for application performance, to include M365 Apps and third party UC apps (e.g. Zoom). Here is a link that provides more details on this: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-365/enterprise/app-overview. As for GPU, GPU support is not yet available in Windows 365. However, we recommend Azure Virtual Desktop for a persona with GPU requirements! Curious to know the number of users requiring GPU? And what is the average amount of time used on a daily basis?
