Windows 365 GPU Frontline Select 256 GB SKU available on Aug 1
⏳ The temporary CSP purchase restriction on the Windows 365 GPU Frontline Select 256-GB SKU was scheduled to lift on August 1, 2026 after system-configuration updates.
💡 Microsoft positions the GPU-enabled Cloud PC option for graphics-intensive tasks such as design, visualization and advanced development.
💡 For CSP teams with paused evaluations or orders, the announcement restores a route to transact that specific configuration rather than announcing a new GPU capability across all Windows 365 plans.
👉 Partners should check the current catalog and product guidance when revisiting those opportunities, especially where naming has subsequently changed.
