R730xd with K1 nvidia grid
We are going to buy a R730xd server with 5x 2.5" disks, double processor and 128GB of RAM.
We are now stuck trying to understand if the nvidia K1 grid (part number #490-BCHR) is compatible with the R730xd (this page seems to say "yes" www.dell.com/.../490-bchr ) and above all if a 750W dual power supply would be enough.
we could not be able to contact any sales/technician support here in Italy so why I'm asking here (I haven't realized how Dell changed: once they would have contacted me in matter of minutes, now.. I cannot find either a number to call..)
No Events found!

I am currently waiting for an R730 (not an xd) from Dell, which is equipped with a K1 grid card. When I speced it out (and I selected dual 135w procs, which is the highest ones that they support with the grid card), it said that it required 1100w power supplies. It also had to include a GPU installation kit. I don't know what all is included in that kit, but I couldn't get the grid card in there without it.
