Looks like X79 & X99 still the best choice that without these problems.

Now I'm already updated Kernel 4.2 and QEMU without re-install Ubuntu
14.04, but I didn't install libvirt and virt-manager yet.
Because I don't want to install them by using only simple install method (*sudo
apt-get install kvm*) to avoid QEMU flush.
And I still get confused when I read posts on blog.

If I want to mount GPU without pci-stub, I guess the steps is:

1. Create the script that makes vfio-pci work, and it different form the
old vfio-bind.sh (because it can also bind HDMI Audio together.)
2. Bind ids to vfio-pci by type command into modprobe.d
3. Using the normal VM setting script to launch VM.

Did I get any wrong?
