   Memory bandwidth

   0.32 TB/s

   GDDR is graphics memory mounted on the board around the GPU rather than stacked on the package. It is widely used on graphics, rendering and cost-efficient inference cards.

   VRAM is the working space on the card. Model weights, activations and datasets have to fit in it, or be split across several GPUs. Rule of thumb for the weights alone at 16-bit precision (about 2 GB per billion parameters): up to roughly 8 billion parameters, before activations and cache. This is arithmetic on the recorded VRAM, not a benchmark.

   Lifecycle status

   Legacy

   Launched in 2015. Kovara's records list it as a legacy part.

3. 03Form factor and power

   Not supported

   MIG

   Not supported

   Form factor

   PCIe dual-slot

   TDP

   300 W

   Kovara's records show no NVLink support, so multi-GPU jobs on this part rely on PCIe or the network between servers to move data.

   PCIe cards slot into standard server and workstation expansion slots, which suits a wide range of systems.

   TDP is the rated thermal design power: the planning figure for power delivery and cooling in a server.

4. 04What it is used for

   Primary use (recorded)

   VDI / graphics virtualization / legacy compute

   These are the uses Kovara has recorded for this part. The notes explain the workload in general terms; they are not performance claims.

   • VDISharing a GPU between remote desktops and virtual workstations.
   • graphics virtualizationSharing a GPU between remote desktops and virtual workstations.
   • legacy compute
