Update:  Installed second Tesla K80 in the R720 and everything is working fine. Everything is functioning correctly and operating as expected. Dual K80's at 100% are obviously much warmer overall than dual K20's, but they are staying well within their operating temp specs as the fans are running at a higher rpm.  I was quite happy to find out the system fans are properly reactive to the K80 operating temp changes.  This was a point of major concern going into this project. All in all, I am quite pleased with how this project has turned out, as it really changes the landscape going forward now that we know it is possible. James
Has anyone "actually physically tried" installing Tesla K80's in a R720 server?If so, how did it turn out? I am interested in hearing both success and failure stories.And yes, I know it's documented as unsupported. That is not the question.I have seen reference to a University that had several servers in this configuration as part of their school cluster.I have R720's running with K20's that I want to upgrade. I have both K40's and K80's in my possession.Looking for some "been there, tried that" enlightenment in reference to the K80's. Thanks,James
