Dell Poweredge 2900 Tower Server GPU recommendations in c/buildapc@lemmy.world
[–] 1 point 1 year ago

Like the other commenters said, the performance per watt isn’t great but if your power is cheap, that won’t matter. You should be able to get quad core Xeon chips on eBay for super cheap (I bought a pair of E5440s for $16 I think). You got plenty of RAM already for a server of that era. Does it have a PCIe power plug inside? You’ll need that for those two GPUs.

    So long it has PCIe, those cards are going to be backwards compatible with it. Whether you’ll be able to get their full potential performance depends on the rest of the system. That’s a mid to late 2000s server. What are the other specifications of it?
