Dell R730 with consumer grade GPU

Hey,

Although it's officially not supported, would I be able to install a consumer grade GPU such as 980GTX or Titan X into one of those (Configured with a thermal profile for 2CPUs + GPU)?

I have done that before on R720 with GTX Titan and it works quite well. Is there anything that I should worry about (Such as space inside the server)?

Thanks,

Nick

    Hi, 

    we have a number of R730 machines with two Titan X per machine, which works fine.

    Best,

    Jakob

    Hello,

    If memory serves, you have two external PCI-E connectors for each slot: a 6+2 pin and a 6 pin.

    These pins are connected to the riser card you get when speccing out the R730 for GPU usage.

    Cheers

    Hi,

    According to Titan X manual, card should be connected with BOTH 6 pin and 8 pin auxiliary power connectors. Can you suggest how you connect that in R730? I believe there is only one of this connectors available.

    Thank you!

    Hello,

    I have some questions about the R730 server and the GPU of Titan Xp. 

    Titan X or Titan Xp need supplement colder or not?

    And Your Titan X is the full size(2 slots version) or not?

    thanks for your helping and patience.

    have a nice day.
