Figure 109. Removing the GPU 2. If you are not replacing the GPU card, install a GPU blank if the adjacent card is double-width card. Install filler blank, if the adjacent card in not double-width card. NOTE: You must install a GPU blank over an empty GPU card slot to maintain Federal Communications Commission (FCC) certification of the system. The blanks also keep dust and dirt out of the system and aid in proper cooling and airflow inside the system. The GPU blank is necessary to maintain proper thermal conditions. 3. To install the GPU blank: a. Align the connector on the GPU blank with the connector on the riser. b. Insert the GPU blank into the riser until firmly seated. c. Close the GPU card holder latches on both ends of the riser. NOTE: Place the unused GPU power cable in the riser module bracket. Figure 110. Installing the GPU blank Next steps 1.

If you are not replacing the GPU card, install a GPU blank if the adjacent card is double-width card. Install filler blank, if the
adjacent card in not double-width card.
NOTE:
You must install a GPU blank over an empty GPU card slot to maintain Federal Communications Commission
(FCC) certification of the system. The blanks also keep dust and dirt out of the system and aid in proper cooling and
airflow inside the system. The GPU blank is necessary to maintain proper thermal conditions.
3.
To install the GPU blank:
a.
Align the connector on the GPU blank with the connector on the riser.
b.
Insert the GPU blank into the riser until firmly seated.
c.
Close the GPU card holder latches on both ends of the riser.
NOTE:
Place the unused GPU power cable in the riser module bracket.
