PowerEdge c4130 A2 PCIE compatibility

Question

I have a couple of PowerEdge c4130 GPU servers, currently running M40s in configuration D (no switch board, 2 PCIE GPUs and 2 processors).

I've been considering upgrading to the A2, but had some concerns about compatibility after reading this thread detailing another user's struggles getting a pair of 32 gb SXM2 V100s working with his machine. Is there any way to find the full list of supported hardware?

I have read through the full spec sheet for these servers, but it does not seem to include the complete list of supported hardware (for example, the 16 gb SXM2 V100s mentioned in the other thread sound like they were working, but are not listed on the spec sheet).

Appreciate any help or guidance anyone can provide!

Hello thanks for choosing Dell.

C4130 was released in 2018. I looked up and I see NVIDIA Tesla V100 16GB GPU for NVLink for C4130 but I can't find any information on other recent GPUs. Sorry I can't be of help this time.

Thanks! Can you provide a link to the page where this info is available? Not sure if you meant to post a link above, but it doesn't work for me.

I am not seeing that the A2 or the V100 (32gb), as supported for the C4130. The only 32gb GPU listed for the C4130 is the Nvidia M10 (32gb) part number H56H0.

Now there is V100 GPUs listed, but they are the 16GB version.

Let me know if this helps.
