If you often use applications that produce a high-frame rate content, such as 3D modeling, CAD/CAM and video applications, you may choose to enable a fullscreen video encoding for a remote session. Fullscreen video profile provides a higher frame rate and better user experience for such applications at expense of network bandwidth and both session host and client resources. It is recommended to use GPU-accelerated frame encoding for a full-screen video encoding. Configure Group Policy for the session host to enable fullscreen video encoding. Continuing the steps above:

These instructions should have you up and running with GPU acceleration on one session host (one VM). Some additional considerations for enabling GPU acceleration across a larger host pool:

* Consider using a [VM extension](../virtual-machines/extensions/overview.md) to simplify driver installation and updates across a number of VMs. Use the [NVIDIA GPU Driver Extension](../virtual-machines/extensions/hpccompute-gpu-windows.md) for VMs with NVIDIA GPUs, and use the [AMD GPU Driver Extension](../virtual-machines/extensions/hpccompute-amd-gpu-windows.md) for VMs with AMD GPUs.
