Graphics card power cable option
Connect the graphics card power cable option to support high-power graphics cards. The server can only
support one graphics card installation. Graphics card installation is only supported in the 8-drive cage
models.
Before installing a high-power graphics card in the server, be sure that the power supplies support the
installation of the card. Because of the high power requirements for the card, a 750-W or higher power
supply might be required. For more information, see the HP website
(http://h30099.www3.hp.com/configurator/).
For more information on estimation of power consumption and proper selection of components, see the HP
website (http://www.hp.com/go/hppoweradvisor).
To connect the cable option:
1. Power down the server (on page 20).
2. Remove all power:
