We would like to fit two Tesla C870 cards in one server that does have multiple PCIe x16 slots, but I don’t know much about form factors, dual slot cards etc, and I’d like to find out if two C870 are likely to fit in a server such as this one:
Squinting at the 1 kW chassis picture on that page, it looks like they show it with 2 dual-slot cards in place. (The diagonal silver-colored bars look like the mounting brackets often used to hold the large heatsinks on dual-slot cards.)
Yep, that’s what I intended since it has 2 or 3 16x PCIe slots… If possible, we would prefer something more server oriented, such as a Dell PowerEdge 2950
