Microsoft's default "Remote Desktop Connection Manager" Or Tool may not offer GPU experience from an inbuilt GPU processor or Externally added Dedicated GPU Server.

Requirements -

  1. You must check first whether your Package or Plan or Product you purchased from us or will purchase from us has any GPU offer or if that is accepted.
  2. Your Configuration must has an Inbuilt GPU which comes for free with Purchased Configuration.
