T440 GPU installation

Hello,

 

need some help, 

can I install GPU card - like P620 or NVS310 on T440 without any GPU installation kit ( i remember on 13th gen that was separated part of config ) ?

 

Thanks!

    Hello,

    Looking at page 110 of the User's Guide, we can get the GPU requirements.

    https://topics-cdn.dell.com/pdf/poweredge-t440_owners-manual_en-us.pdf

    • Supports only single slot GPU card.
    • Supports only active (embedded fan) GPU card.
    • High power (>75W) GPU cards that use GPU AUX cable should have dual system fans without redundancy.

    Observe the following guidelines while installing a GPU card:
    • GPU are supported only in the Rack mode configuration.
    • GPU can be installed only on systems that have 1100 W or higher power supply units.
    • Each GPU card supports up to 32 GB of dedicated GDDR5 memory.
    • Two double-width GPU cards on a single processor configuration and four double width GPU cards on a dual processor configuration
    do not support any other add-on cards.
    • The GPU cards must be installed:
    • On GPU enabled system (two processor and also contains the main air shroud and GPU air shrouds).
    • Specific GPU cards will need the use of the dongle power cable.

     For a more power hungry card, the power dongle cable the requirements list is part DRXPD. I do see an install kit for a bracket, fan, and cable for Nvidia FHFL cards. But with something like an NVS310, you may be fine. The SKU for that kit is 490-BEDR, should you end up needing it.
