The following other rules apply:
If two GPUs are installed, they must be identical
The first GPU is installed in slot 3; the second GPU is installed in slot 6 and requires the second
processor to be installed.
The number of GPUs that can be installed depends on the type of power supply that is installed
and the type and number of other components that are installed. For more information, see the
Power Supply section.
If a NVIDIA card is installed, the maximum memory that can be installed is 1 TB.
Power supplies and redundant cooling
The server supports up to two redundant power supplies. Standard models come with one or two power
supplies (depending on the model).
The server also comes standard with two (for models with one processor installed) or four (for models with
two processors installed) hot-swap cooling fans. For models with only one processor, an optional
Redundant Cooling Kit provides N+1 cooling redundancy. The following table lists the power supplies and
