2. Návod k použití

2.1. Critical BIOS Configuration

Power on your computer and press the BIOS key (Del/F2/F10, depending on your motherboard brand) to enter the BIOS settings. Follow these steps:

1. Přejděte na Konfigurace PCIe / PCI / PnP a enable Above 4G Decoding. This is required for proper addressing of large memory.
2. Disable CSM Support (Compatibility Support Module) and set the boot mode to pure UEFI.
3. Soubor PCIe Speed to Gen3 (or Auto) a disable PCIe ASPM power-saving options.
4. Uložte změny and restart the computer.

2.2. System Driver Installation & Configuration

Nastavení systému Windows

1. Systémové požadavky: Windows 10/11 64-bit Professional/Enterprise Edition (Home Edition is not recommended).
2. Download and install the latest NVIDIA Tesla drivers from the official NVIDIA webmísto, selecting the Data Center/Tesla branch.
3. Po instalaci otevřete Ovládací panel NVIDIA a navigovat do Manage GPU Utilization to confirm the card is detected.

Linux System Setup

1. Systémové požadavky: Ubuntu 18.04/20.04 LTS or CentOS 7/8 (kernel 4.15+ recommended).
2. Disable the default Nouveau driver, then install the official NVIDIA driver and CUDA toolkit.
3. Verify installation with the command: nvidia-smi (the Tesla P100 16GB should appear in the list).

4. Nejčastější dotazy

Q: Can I use this GPU for gaming?
A: No, this GPU is designed for computing tasks only (deep learning, scientific computing, rendering) and does not support gaming or video playback acceleration.
Q: Does this GPU have video output ports?
A: No, the NVIDIA Tesla P100 is a compute-only GPU and does not have any video output ports. You will need a separate GPU or integrated graphics for display output.
Q: What are the recommended operating system versions?
A: For Windows, Windows 10/11 64-bit Professional/Enterprise Edition. For Linux, Ubuntu 18.04/20.04 LTS or CentOS 7/8 (kernel 4.15+ recommended).
Q: What should I do if my system doesn’t detect the GPU?
A: First, ensure ‘Above 4G Decoding’ is enabled in your BIOS. Then, try reseating the GPU and checking the power connection. If the issue persists, try a different PCIe 3.0 x16 slot.
Q: How much power does this GPU require?
A: A power supply unit (PSU) of at least 500W is recommended to ensure stable operation.
Q: What if I encounter other issues during installation?
A: Please contact us directly for support before considering a return of the item.

5. Final Notes

• This GPU is designed for computing tasks only (deep learning, scientific computing, rendering). It does not support gaming or video playback acceleration.
• Keep the GPU in a well-ventilated environment to ensure long-term stability.

For NVIDIA Tesla P100 16GB Professional Computing GPU Installation Guide Suitable for AliExpress product detail pages, direct use
1. Safety Warnings & Pre-Installation Notes This is a used professional computing GPU with NO video output ports. It is not intended for consumer gaming use and is designed for server/workstation environments only. Please read carefully before installation: TDP: 250W. Requires a power supply rated 500W with a standard 8-pin (or 6+2-pin) PCIe power connector. Only supports PCIe 3.0 x16 slots. Motherboard must support UEFI mode and Above 4G Decoding. Passive cooling design: Must be installed in a server chassis with forced airflow. Insufficient cooling will cause thermal throttling or hardware damage. No display output: A separate GPU or motherboard iGPU is required for system display.
2. Hardware Installation Steps Step 1: Preparations 1. Shut down the host, disconnect the power cord, and discharge static electricity by touching the metal chassis. 2. Remove the side panel and locate the PCIe 3.0 x16 slot (preferably the one closest to the CPU). 3. Remove the corresponding PCIe bracket from the chassis (requires a 2-slot wide clearance). Step 2: Install the GPU 1. Hold the card by its edges, align it with the PCIe slot’s key notch, and press down evenly until you hear a “click” (indicating it is locked). 2. Secure the GPU bracket to the chassis with screws to prevent movement. 3. Connect the 8-pin power cable: Fully insert the power supply’s 8-pin (or 6+2-pin) connector into the GPU’s power port and confirm it is firmly seated. Step 3: Chassis & Cooling Check 1. Ensure there is no obstruction around the GPU and that the chassis airflow is unobstructed (front-to-back airflow is recommended). 2. After installation, verify the GPU is fully seated in the slot and the power cable is not stretched or blocked.
3. Critical BIOS Configuration Power on and press the BIOS key (Del/F2/F10, depending on your motherboard brand): 1. Navigate to PCIe/PCI/PnP Configuration and enable Above 4G Decoding (required for proper addressing of large memory). 2. Disable CSM Support (Compatibility Support Module) and set the boot mode to pure UEFI. 3. Set PCIe Speed to Gen3 (or Auto) and disable PCIe ASPM power-saving options. 4. Save changes and restart the computer.
