Can I add Multiple GPUs To A Power Edge R805

Hello,

I have limited hardware to work with but I do have an older Power Edge R805 which seems to work well.  The system specs say it has 2 Full Length 8x PCIe slots, half length 8x PCIe slot, and half length 4x PCIe slot.  Basically, I am experimenting and would like to add 2 GPUs to the system.

I am concerned about PCIe compatibility, power consumption/connectors, and etc.  Can anyone offer me advice suggestions as I have limited experience with hardware and funds.

Thanks again,

Joe

JoeDirgy,

I am not showing that the R805 officially supports using GPU's. thats not saying that it wouldn't work, but it is simply not tested in the server , so it isn't supported by Dell.

I would go by trial and error to see if it is functional for you on the R805. 

Let me know how it goes.
