SW GPU over a DW GPU riser config
Hello,
we have a newer poweredge 750 server with this riser "330-BBRW : Riser Config 2, Full Length, 4x16, 2x8 slots, DW GPU Capable" included to host a GPU. Perhaps we were wrong when chose the correct ConfigX but the idea was to but a T4/A2 nvidia Gpu, but I've been told by the reseller that I can only add a DW card such as "A30" or "A16" because of that "DW" specification.
On an older R740 we have "330-BBHH : Riser Config 4, 3x8, 4 x16 slots" hosting a T4 without any issues, so I have some questions, just to clarify my knowledge:
- "DW" and "SW" does differ only for the shape of the card? I mean, "DW" requires "two slots" only?
- why can't I use the same slot I would use for a A30 for a T4 instead? I thought that DW can fit also SW
- what is the difference between a GPU bought from Dell and same model from another vendor (apparently they look like same product) ?
- is the warranty of the server void if I add a "SW" on a "DW" configuration? if yes, why?
thanks,
alaxa
