CompTIA Cloud+ (CV0-003) — Question 26

A cloud administrator is building a new VM for machine-learning training. The developer requesting the VM has stated that the machine will need a full GPU dedicated to it. Which of the following configuration options would BEST meet this requirement?

Answer options

• A. Virtual GPU
• B. External GPU
• C. Passthrough GPU
• D. Shared GPU

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct option, Passthrough GPU, allows direct access to the GPU hardware, providing the full performance required for intensive tasks like machine learning. In contrast, Virtual GPU and Shared GPU do not offer dedicated access, while External GPU may not integrate well with the VM environment.
