Install nvidia quadro RTX800
I have a Dell 740xd server in our lab. I would like to install GPU nvidi Quadr RTX8000 GPU. The question is how to supply the power to the GPU? I see there are 2 connectors with 230W of power. Is it possible to use the power connector cable that comes withthe Quadro ? I think it comes with 8 pin and 6 pin. I would like to use the 8 pin to connect the power supply connector 1 and the 6 pin to the power supply connector2.
The system has 1100W power supply.

Hello,
I don't know what the cable that came with Quadro is. I saw the following information on page 117 of the manual here https://dell.to/32bmok6
NOTE: When using systems with GPU, ensure that you install PSUs with 1100 W or higher, and set the PSU configuration
to non-redundant mode.
NOTE: Generally, any GPU that is greater than 75 W requires a power cable. GPUs with 75 W or less does not require a
power cable
Also, I checked to installing a GPU steps on this article but I can't be sure from photos but honestly, I believe it might be 8pin and 6 pin power cable https://dell.to/3fCM8Jj
Hope that helps!
