GPU card installation guidelines
•
Ensure that both the processors are installed.
•
The processor must use a GPU kit low-profile heat sink module.
•
To ensure adequate cooling when one or more GPUs are installed, the ambient inlet temperature is restricted to 30°C for CPU 150
W/8 C, 165 W/12 C, 200 W, 205 W. For more information, see the
ambient temperature limitations
section.
•
Ensure that the GPU enablement kit is available.
The GPU enablement kit includes:
○
GPU air shroud
○
Mylar
○
Riser 3A
○
GPU cable for riser 3A
○
GPU cable for riser 2A
○
Riser 2A
○
Riser 1A or 1D
○
GPU cable for riser 1A or 1D
○
Two 1U processor and heat sink modules and two CPU clips
○
Six high performance cooling fans
•
All GPUs must be of the same type and model.
•
You can install up to three double-wide or six single-wide GPUs.
•
The filler bracket on the GPU air shroud must be removed before installing the GPU.
•
Ensure that high performance fans and GPU air shroud are installed.
