Graphics Blade Servers

HP WS460c Graphics Server Blade● HP cannot support second I/O card

when GPU is installed. Amulet & Dellcan (see list on pg 2)

● HP double-width blade expansionoption impacts density due to a mis-match of CPU cores to virtual GPUnumber of users

● Limited RAM as WS460c has only 16DIMMS for 1TB max RAM. Amulet &Dell support 24 DIMMs for up to1.5TB

● NVIDIA Tesla P6 not supported yet(Nov 2017)

Cisco UCS B200 M5● While Cisco can support up to 2x GPU

cards, there are significant trade-offs.Customers must choose betweenadditional blade IO cards, or localblade storage, or adding GPUs.Amulet Hotkey & Dell can support aGPU, local storage and a second IOcard.

● Limited blade I/O when virtual GPUis installed with max 40Gbps. Amulet& Dell support up to 120Gbps witha virtual GPU and a secondary I/Ocard

● Cisco requires a larger footprint with16 blades in 12U (2x 6U) UCS 5108Chassis. Amulet Hotkey & Dell fit 16blades in only 10U
