Hi guys!

 

Just asking if it is possible to install a GPU card on HP Proliant ml310e gen8 v2? Will downloading the software from Nvidia do the trick?

 

Thanks!

The first question I would ask is the Boot Environment BIOS or UEFI. See here.

Your asking about installing a UEFI graphic card into your system. The 1050 draws 75W from the PCIEx16 slot. It has NO added power plug.

Secondly, a server is not a personal computer. The technologies behind them are engineered for different purposes.

Thank you for your kind reply. I'll get back to you on the UEFI settings.

So it is not possible for me to install a 1050TI gpu card on the machine?

Hi sir! Sorry to have kept you waiting, I have confirmed it to be BIOS. Thanks to your good link that showed me how to.

 

Back to the topic, will I be able to install a 1050TI on the said unit?

 

Thanks!
