Can someone dumb it down for me what this means for people at home? Any impact on Linux gaming?

It means you can split your GPU into multiple vGPUs and pass them through to Virtual machines I believe. Similar to what we do with cpu

Pretty much nothing, except that NVIDIA doesn't care about the average gamer on Linux, only corps
