GPU kit The GPU FL kit is available for the Customer. Depending on the kit ordered, the respective components are available. CAUTION: Do not install GPUs, network cards, or other PCIe devices on your system that are not validated and tested by Dell. Damage caused by unauthorized and invalidated hardware installation will null and void the system warranty. WARNING: Consumer-Grade GPU should not be installed or used in the Enterprise Server products. Table 153.

Refer to the GPU power cable matrix table below for the power cable required for your GPU. NOTE: Populate only processor 1 slot in RC10-2, as it only supports a single processor configuration. NOTE: See expansion card installation guidelines for more information about riser configuration supported for the system. NOTE: ^ R1P and R4P supports Double Width (DW) GPU. NOTE: *The configuration 5-2 supports DW GPU only on slots 7 and configuration 10-2 supports DW GPU only on slot 2. NOTE: All GPU cards require L-type heat sink and GPU shroud, irrespective of the length. However, the cooling fan and foam are dependent on different configurations which is shown in below table. Before you begin, follow the safety guidelines and before working inside the system instructions. 1. Remove the standard or High Performance Silver (HPR) cooling fans and install the High performance Gold (VHP) cooling fans. NOTE: See the cooling fan and foam requirement matrix for the cooling fan and foam requirement for different configurations. Table 154.

NOTE:

The power cable is imprinted with a silkscreen indicating which connector on the system board and to which GPU it

should be connected. Refer to the GPU power cable matrix table below for the power cable required for your GPU.

NOTE:

Populate only processor 1 slot in RC10-2, as it only supports a single processor configuration.

NOTE:

See

expansion card installation guidelines

for more information about riser configuration supported for the system.

NOTE:

^ R1P and R4P supports Double Width (DW) GPU.

NOTE:

*The configuration 5-2 supports DW GPU only on slots 7 and configuration 10-2 supports DW GPU only on slot 2.

NOTE:

All GPU cards require L-type heat sink and GPU shroud, irrespective of the length. However, the cooling fan and

foam are dependent on different configurations which is shown in below table.

Before you begin, follow the

safety guidelines

and

before working inside the system

instructions.

Remove the standard or High Performance Silver (HPR) cooling fans and install the High performance Gold (VHP) cooling

fans.

NOTE:

See the cooling fan and foam requirement matrix for the cooling fan and foam requirement for different

configurations.
