Installation and Setup
Installing the HPE Secondary 3 Slot GPU Ready Riser Kit for Proliant servers is a relatively simple process that can be completed in just a few steps. Here is a general overview of the installation process:
- Before starting the installation process, make sure that your server is powered off and unplugged from any power source.
- Locate the riser cage and remove the blanking plate. This is typically located on the back of the server, near the bottom.
- Carefully remove the riser cage from the server. This may require removing any attached cables or screws.
- Insert the riser kit into the riser cage and secure it with the provided screws.
- Reinstall the riser cage back into the server and secure it with the original screws.
- Connect any necessary cables to the riser kit, including power and data cables.
- Turn on the server and boot it up. The riser kit should be recognized by the system and be ready for use.
- Install the Graphics card into the riser kit and connect it as per the instruction manual that comes with the graphics card.
About Refurbished Products
Accessories - Riser Card
With the changing business needs, you may need to add more expansion cards. That may not be possible in an already congested motherboard. Another thing is that the right PCI express slot may not be available for the type of additional expansion cards. PCI slots are valuable yet limited resources even in modern-day computers. So, should it be a bottleneck to the high performance that you want from your system?
Increasing the Number of PCI Express Slots
Riser cards are independent circuit boards that can increase the number of PCI-express slots available on the motherboard. The Dell 1NH8H 2x8 riserfor PowerEdge, for example, avails three PCIe x8 slots from just one slot on a computer motherboard. It is an ideal choice if you need to extend a slot.
Better Cooling in the System
Expansion cards such as GPUs generate a lot of heat. If these units are stacked horizontally on the motherboard, the cooling can be a big problem. Riser boards are used to make it possible for a vertical component arrangement with enough space between additional expansion cards. So, cooling can be achieved efficiently.
Mixed Riser Cards for Different Expansion Cards
Depending on the functionality of the system you want to extend, you might need x4, x8, or x16 PCI Express slots. Using a PCI e riser card makes it possible to get that slot with the bandwidth your application needs. The expansion card can then be plugged into the riser to scale-up performance and memory capacity.
