The R720 can connect to the PowerEdge C410x through a host interface card (HIC) and an iPass
®
cable. Both the NVIDIA
and Dell x16 HIC require one x16 PCIe slot. Each HIC can support up to
four GPUs. The R720 can support up to four GPUs maximum. For a list of supported GPU HICs, see
Table 18.
Some operating systems have not been validated to support GPUs. See Table 24 and Table 25 for
more information on operating system support of GPUs.
The Intel C600 chipset is implemented on the PowerEdge R720 and R720xd. For more information,
