List of GPU for DELL Poweredge R760 server

The Dell PowerEdge R760 server, is designed for high-performance computing workloads and supports a range of NVIDIA GPUs. The specific GPUs and their maximum quantities can vary based on the server's configuration (e.g., riser configurations, power supplies, cooling).

Here's a breakdown of some of the graphics accelerators that can be installed in Dell PowerEdge R760 servers and their intended tasks:

Supported NVIDIA GPUs and their typical applications:

  • NVIDIA L4 (24 GB GDDR6):
    • Specifications: Single-slot, low-profile, 72W TDP, PCIe Gen4. Features Ada Lovelace architecture, 4th generation Tensor Cores, and 3rd generation RT Cores.
    • Intended Tasks:
      • AI Inference: Optimized for video and inference at scale, particularly for a broad range of AI applications.
      • Video Processing & Streaming: Excellent for real-time AI video pipelines, video conferencing, video analytics, and live streaming (can host over 1000 concurrent AV1 video streams at 720p30).
      • Virtual Workstations: Suitable for professional design and engineering, offering virtual graphical workstations.
      • 3D Rendering & Visualization: Supports 3D rendering and graphical visualization for architecture, animation, and modeling.
      • Edge Computing: Its low power consumption makes it suitable for deployments at the edge.
  • NVIDIA L40 (48 GB GDDR6) / L40S (48 GB GDDR6):
    • Specifications: Double-width, full-length, 350W TDP, PCIe Gen4. Based on Ada Lovelace architecture with a significant number of CUDA, Tensor, and RT Cores.
    • Intended Tasks:
      • Generative AI: Premier platform for multi-modal generative AI pipelines, accelerating AI-enabled audio, speech, 2D, video, and 3D generative AI applications.
      • Large Language Model (LLM) Inference and Training: Accelerates training, fine-tuning, and inference workloads for state-of-the-art AI models, supporting up to 175 billion parameter models.
      • High-Performance Graphics: Enhanced throughput for ray-tracing and shading, accelerating renders for product design, architecture, engineering, and construction.
      • Virtual GPU (vGPU): The L40/L40S supports NVIDIA vGPU, allowing multiple users to access graphically intensive applications on a single GPU, ideal for large enterprise environments and virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI).
      • Data Science: Powerful compute capabilities for data science workloads.
  • NVIDIA A100 (40 GB HBM2 / 80 GB HBM2e):
    • Specifications: Double-width, full-length. Known for its high memory bandwidth and Tensor Core performance (based on Ampere architecture).
    • Intended Tasks:
      • Large-scale AI Training: A workhorse for deep learning training, especially for complex and large AI models.
      • High-Performance Computing (HPC): Accelerates scientific simulations, data analytics, and other compute-intensive HPC applications.
      • Data Science: Significantly speeds up data processing and analysis.
  • NVIDIA H100 (80 GB HBM2e):
    • Specifications: Double-width, full-length, PCIe Gen5. Features NVIDIA Hopper architecture, including a dedicated Transformer Engine.
    • Intended Tasks:
      • Extreme AI Training & Inference: Designed for the most demanding AI workloads, especially large language models (LLMs) with trillions of parameters, offering significant speedups in conversational AI.
      • Exascale Workloads: Capable of accelerating exascale workloads through technologies like NVIDIA NVLink Switch System, connecting many GPUs.
      • High-Performance Computing (HPC): Delivers unparalleled performance for simulations, complex scientific research, and data analytics.
      • Generative AI: Leading platform for the development and deployment of advanced generative AI models.

General Considerations for GPU Installation in Dell PowerEdge R760:

  • PCIe Slots: The R760 offers various PCIe slot configurations. Double-width GPUs often require specific riser configurations (e.g., Riser Configurations 3-2, 5-2, or 10-2).
  • Power and Cooling: High-power GPUs require robust power supplies and advanced cooling solutions (e.g., High-Performance Gold fans) to operate effectively and prevent thermal throttling.
  • Dell Validation: Dell strongly advises only installing GPUs that have been validated and tested by Dell to ensure system warranty and optimal performance.
  • Server Model Variation: While the R760 is a powerful platform, there are variations like the Dell PowerEdge R760xa that are specifically designed for higher GPU density and performance. The R760xa, for example, supports up to four dual-slot GPUs and is explicitly marketed for AI, machine learning, and data analytics.

Always consult the official Dell PowerEdge R760 documentation (Installation and Service Manual, Technical Guide, and GPU Matrix data sheets) for the most accurate and detailed information on supported GPUs and their installation requirements for your specific server configuration.
