Strange freezes with Tesla C2050 - Help needed! Help needed!!!!

But that’s not an issue because of that support. If your hardware is failing, then that warranty and support will make it their problem, not yours.

Side comment: You’re right that Tier 1 vendor custom builds are limiting, though. I consulted with a company who had bought an IBM workstation with a Tesla. The workstation was even configurable for dual Teslas, but they bought with just one card. I wanted to add a second GPU, and lo and behold IBM had used a custom PSU with exactly one 6 pin and one 8 pin power cable, so I couln’t just add an extra. And the custom PSU form factor prevented swapping it out, and IBM didn’t sell the “two GPU” PSU separately. I ended up using one of those 5.25" drive bay aux PSUs to drive the second board. But only after digging up a PCI video card since the motherboard only had two PCIe slots! It turned me off of such custom machines… you get what you pay for, but absolutely nothing past that.
