So, I have both an AMD and NVIDIA GPU, the AMD card works fine on Linux, but I’d like to use the NVIDIA card for a Windows KVM. When I attempt to select the card whilst in the settings of the KVM. This doesn’t only apply to GPU’s either, but it is slightly different. I am able to select my Capture Card for passthrough, but it is simply not detected, not allowing it to function. I have no clue why the NVIDIA card isn’t detected (even by Linux) or why the capture card isn’t being registered after it’s passthrough.

Are you trying to do a QEMU KVM GPU passtrough?

Yes

Did you make all needed preparations for that? I.e. activating IOMMU, blacklisting your second GPU (or isolating, whatever it called), adding modules in mkinitcpio etc.?

If not, you can just simply refer to this video:

And also a documentation from official wiki:
https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/PCI_passthrough_via_OVMF

In this video I show you how to pass through your graphics card to a virtual machine (virt-manager) on Artix Linux.
