On 31 March, NVIDIA posted an updated vGPU Manager and Driver on our website ([http://www.nvidia.com/vGPU](http://www.nvidia.com/vGPU))

Here are the key updates:

- Support for Windows 8.1 and Windows Server 2012 R2
- Support for NVWMI
- Support for nView
- Additional GRID vGPU profiles: K120Q/K220Q with 512MB frame buffer
- Various bug fixes

The new vGPU profiles enable greater scalability for designers. The Q on these profiles means that it is a Quadro-class device, and will be certified by professional applications.

The new K120Q and K220Q profiles are a significant feature improvement over the previous versions of GRID vGPU. Now we offer maximal user scalability (8 per GPU) for professional application users.

In non-virtualized environments pro users are used to special features and performance optimizations only available with Quadro cards/drivers. With the latest release this is now available in virtualized environments at maximal user scalability.
