Under which circumstances are 8k monitors possible? I don't find any relevant info in the citrix docs, only this blogpost about H265 and AV1. https://www.citrix.com/blogs/2023/09/20/whats-new-with-citrix-cvad-2308-and-cloud-updates/ This would mean, a customer setup with the new LTSR has to be configured: • CWA 2402 LTSR and newer • CVAD 2402 LTSR and newer • GPU Policy (or default) with "For Actively Changing Regions” and “For the Entire Screen” • Hardware decoding (enabled by default) • H.265 video encoding (seems to be enabled by default)

What is the use case for 8K displays?

Director at this specific customer got a new 8k monitor 🙂

Right sizing is important with 4K and higher..

Yep, It's a CAD Company with the following setup: XenServer 8, A40 GPU Client has a NVDIA GPU too but need to get the correct model.

Which vGPU profile are they using?

I'll know next exactly next week, customer said something about 4Q. According to my Onenote this should be Available Pixels 58982400 Display Resolution 7680×4320: max 1 Display 5120×2880 or lower: max 4 Displays

OK, I would test it. 4Q might be on the low side, remember that 8K = 4x 4K. Check the GPU Memory consumption when using apps on the 8K display and scale GPU profile accordingly

Thank you very much!. This means the only limiting factor is the GPU on the VDA? I can assume then that almost all of our customer setups can (but don't have to) support 8k. No one is using the M-Series anymore.

No, I would definitely not say that is the only limiting factor. In general, using higher resolutions: • Higher bandwidth consumption • Higher resource utilization on VDA & Client

Cool, will add this to my list.
