I trying to find the best GPU that can fit my Dell PowerEdge R630 Server without cutting the server cover or and other modification , i'd like to have some 4-8 gigs of ram card like RTX-3060/ti in desktop cards . if not possible so the higher is better . appreciate any advise .

Note : PSU 2x750 watt

Best you’re probably going to be looking at is a Tesla card of some variant, and in a 1U without external power support it’s not going to be beefy. You’re not getting anywhere close to an RTX anything in that server.

I asked a similar thing the other day but about a 640. The problem I have is a power error during boot that requires F1 to continue but otherwise works fine. The docs mention supporting up to 3 nvidia T4 series cards. Is that Tesla and would that include T400 which looks like it would fit. I just want to avoid the boot error if I can.

Just wanted to add that I got a T400 and it fits lovely in my R640 low-profile slot and no complaints. Works great, passed through to VM.
