   I think GPU passthrough should be much more general than this.
   Only supporting a handful of particular NVIDIA products is not very future-proof.
   See here: https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/data-center/graphics-cards-for-virtualization/
   
   This article explains different approaches: https://blogs.vmware.com/apps/2018/07/using-gpus-with-virtual-machines-on-vsphere-part-1-overview.html
   
   While the pull request is focused on NVIDIA GRID tech, where GPUs are shared between VMs, PCI passthrough for dedicating a single GPU to a single VM should also be possible.
