Correct answer & explanation
VT-x: Intel hardware virtualization support
VT-x enables hardware-assisted virtualization for Intel CPUs. EPT (Extended Page Tables) reduces memory overhead by handling guest page tables in hardware. SR-IOV allows a physical NIC to appear as multiple virtual functions. VT-d provides direct I/O access for VMs. AMD-V is AMD’s equivalent of VT-x.
