2 SolidWorks users on one RTX 2000 Ada – can a single GPU realistically be shared?

There is no good way to handle this why not buy a cheaper / older gpu. You’re going to lose more time on money, support and licenses to run all of this then actually buying a 2nd machine. I would just buy a ThinkPad P16 Gen 2 (16” Intel) Mobile Workstation something like that
