Thanks for the alternatives, I have already been looking at SplashTop but since it's a paid service I have put that option on hold.

i'm using Nomachine server on linux machines - when i connect to them remotely, i always get native resolution of these machines (highest for me is 1600x1200), so look at resolution server is running..

DavyV97

The server hasn't got dedicated graphics, just a little graphics chip on the motherboard for the onboard graphics (low resolution).

So, I have installed a RX550. I chose this card since it would fit in the server and wasn't too expensive. Plus, RemoteFX worked with my RX480 so I'd reckon this should work with the RX550 too.

I am new to UnRAID and still trying to leverage as much as I can from this wonderful product. I have encountered an issue with the VMs and need a little guidance. I have configured Nginx Proxy Manager docker on my UnRAID server. This allows me to connect to the server using a hostname such as unraid.mydomain.net.

I'm dodging the question, but for a reason. You typically want to interact with your VM's using remote access software hosted inside the VM such as RDP or nomachine, and only use Unraid's VNC access for basic management tasks to the VM's that can't use the aforementioned remote access.
