Hello,

 

Can anyone confirm that the H67 chipset supports Hardware Virtualization (VT-x)? I would like to use a core i5-2500K with the H67 chipset but the documentation on the Intel website does not show the H67 chipset as supporting Hardware Virtualization.

This actually depends on the processor. Check the following URL for information about your processor features:

It does support Intel® Virtualization Technology (VT-x)

If you think @ VMware Products the K processors don't support all VT's the Intel® Virtualization Technology (Intel® VT) for Directed I/O (Intel® VT-d) isn't supported and you loose a VIP part of new virtualization, i'm looking for VMWare products and Sandy Bridge CPU too and my choise, actually not yet tested because must buy is: P67 and i7 2600 any GPU for ESXi 4.1 server role, if ESXi fail then i think to move my first Workstation under in Sandy Bridge Seven x64 VmWare Workstation 7.x and a pair of latests Nvidia's 2000 GPU in SLI to have VTd too and use original X58 workstation for ESXi role.

Regard sorry for my English
