Hi. I have a PC and I bought a Tesla P100-PCIE-16GB. I also have an Nvidia GTX1070 for video output. The motherboard is an ASUS X399-a and the Processor is AMD Threadripper 2920X and 64 GB RAM. I want to install the Tesla P100 on Windows 11 and use the GTX 1070 for video output. I installed the drivers from the Nvidia website for both cards but the Tesla card shows a warning triangle on the device manager. If I use TechPowerup GPU-Z I can see the GTX1070 with all its features but the Tesla shows only 8GB of RAM, and NOT CAPABLE of OpenCL, CUDA, DirectCompute, DirectML, PhysX, Vulkan and RayTracing and ONLY CAPABLE OF OpenGL4.6. How can I get it to work? Thanks
Do you mean you installed two different drivers? You should avoid that if possible. Both GPUs use Pascal architecture, so you should be fine with just one driver. Preferrably the Tesla specific one.
Can you share the output of nvidia-smi -q (please attach as text file)
Thanks!
Thank you Markus
I did install the 2 drivers. Tried installing only one but it wasn’t possible. At this point I have both cards looking fine in the device manager and GPU-Z, but it seems only the GTX 1070 is actually working because the temperature on the Tesla stays at around 35Celsius. Also, If I turn on HW-Info or GPU-Z everything becomes glitchy and irresponsive. I tried to run a simulation in Ansys, which is the main reason I got the Tesla card for, and it crashes. It did so several times and with different simulation models. I’m uploading the output of [nvidia-smi -q output.txt|attachment](upload://308RMKurbVw7OKqlZxNBelXPDY7.txt) (22.4 KB). Any further information, particularly if there’s some utility to see if the Tesla card actually works would be very much appreciated. Cheers!
text file contents… sorry I could’t upload the file

Tried installing only one but it wasn’t possible
In what way? If you download the driver directly you should be able to install it manually. Make sure to remove any residual driver installation first. (Clear uninstall with something like DDU should work). Then install the Tesla driver. The 1070 should still work nicely.
In any case, first make sure your BIOS is updated and you have “Above 4G decoding” enabled! The P100 has a BAR setting of 16GB so it will need the BIOS support to work correctly.
It is not surprising that the GPU is idling right now, because Windows will use the 1070 as the main GPU since it has Display outputs. Windows as such will not know what to do with the second card. You need your Software to be multi-GPU aware. That means for example Ansys needs to be able to use the secondary GPU specifically. nvidia-smi is showing it as active and available, but aside from the potential BAR issue above you also need to make sure the SW you use is aware of it.
One way of testing this is to try the CUDA samples, especially the ones about choosing and enumerating CUDA devices. If you get those working correctly, the GPU is fine. If not and it cannot be a driver or BIOS problem, then your GPU itself might have an issue.
I mentioned this before in a different thread, P100 is NOT meant to be used as a Desktop PC GPU, so there is no guarantee that it will work at all.
