OVERVIEW

The NVIDIA GRID™ K2 is a dual-slot 10.5 inch PCI Express Gen3 graphics card with two

high-end NVIDIA has 8 GB of GDDR5 memory (4 GB per GPU), and a 225 W maximum power limit. The NVIDIA GRID K2 graphics board uses a passive heat sink that requires system airflow to properly operate the card within thermal limits. It is designed to accelerate graphics in virtual remote workstation and virtual desktop environments.

Kepler™ graphics processing units (GPUs). The NVIDIA GRID K2

The NVIDIA GRID K2 graphics board can be configured to enable or disable ECC (error correcting codes) that can fix single-bit errors and detect double-bit errors. Enabling ECC will cause some of the memory to be used for the ECC bits, so the user available memory will decrease by 10%. ECC protection is for DRAM only.
