Graphic pass-through using horizon

Hi everyone, I need your help to answer to my following questions:

1- is it possible to use a video card that is installed on the client to run an application (autocad) that is installed and run on a remote desktop with horizon? So the app is remote but the video card is physically local on client

2- if I have workstations that mount specific video cards (for example RTX A4000) and I want to dispose them an replace them with remote desktops using horizon on ESX servers that mount greed cards .... how can I know the type of card that I should mount on ESX in order to meet the requirements of that card? Is there a...kind of comparator?

Thank you

GPU passthrough means you can assign the video card that installed in your server to the VM that server hosts. You can find more info from https://techzone.vmware.com/resource/deploying-hardware-accelerated-graphics-vmware-horizon-7#types-...

Redirecting GPU from client to the VM is not supported.
