INTRODUCTION

The NVIDIA®Tesla™C2050/2070 Computing

Processor transforms your workstation to a personal

supercomputer by oering unprecedented

computing capabilities at 1/10th the cost of a

conventional CPU-only workstation. The NVIDIA

Tesla C2050/2070 Computing Processor supports

“must have” features for technical and enterprise

computing, including C++ support, ECC memory for

uncompromised accuracy and scalability, and 7X the

double precision performance compared to Tesla

10-series GPU computing products.

About This Guide

This installation guide discusses the installation and conguration of the

HARDWARE INSTALLATIONS

Installing the Tesla C2050/2070 hardware involves

opening up your computer.

Note: All hardware must be installed prior to installation of

the drivers.

Before You Begin

applies to Windows based systems.

Tesla C2050/2070 Installation

A computer system with an available PCI Express ×16 slot is required for

the Tesla C2050/2070. For the best system bandwidth between the host

processor and the Tesla C2050/2070, it is recommended (but not required)

that the Tesla C2050/2070 be installed in a PCI Express ×16 Gen2 slot.

Because there are so many dierent computer systems on the market,

the installation procedure for the Tesla C2050/2070 can vary from system

to system. Use the following instructions as a guideline and consult the

documentation for clarication of computer specic procedures.

2 Open your computer chassis (refer to your system documentation

for details).

3 Remove the slot bracket for the two adjacent slots, if they are still covered.

The Tesla C2050/2070 computing board is a dual-slot board and will take up

two (2) slots. Save any hardware (such as screws) to use to anchor the Tesla

C2050/2070 computing board after it is seated properly.rail installation.

4 Connect the 8-pin power connector and the 6-pin power connector from

The Tesla C2050/2070 requires
