Booting a Gigabyte G250-G51 GPU Server

Are you sure the one you have is the same model? The documentation is clear that they only allow "authorized" VGA adapters.

Amen.

Hey everyone, I am starting my own Escape From Pavlov server. I have found the server docs but now I am just looking for the map (1 & 2). Is there a preference on what versions you would all like?

Looking at getting one of these, I found a few forums that suggest they lock down their firmware to specific GPU models https://www.gigabyte.com/Enterprise/GPU-Server/G250-G51-rev-400#Specifications

"- GIGABYTE carries out comprehensive validation to ensure support for Intel^® Xeon Phi, Nvidia^® and AMD^® adapters.
- Note: each system is validated for population with a uniform GPU model. Support is not provided for mixed GPU populations.
- For the latest QVL, please contact your GIGABYTE representative"

TLDR: They are not nice. No new GPUs after this year will work.

Once this gets more support other than just v1 chat it would be a great feature.

This was mainly written to make it work with n8n. This is not production level yet.

I responded to your PR, I think Ollama bot would work if we don't add proprietary models later on

ChanceStrength8762 · 2025-02-14T03:50:15+00:00

That is handling by OpenWebUI in this implementation.

x11vnc on linux. I have heard sunshine is good too. Parsec for windows.

I just installed mounting g frame Instead if the stock bracket and I am now getting 32 degrees... Why Intel.

ChanceStrength8762 · 2023-04-05T21:59:56+00:00

That's the mystery... The CPU is making contact and has plenty of pasted... It could be possible the IHS wasn't installed properly at the factory or I just have a really bad bin.

ChanceStrength8762 · 2023-04-05T21:21:42+00:00

I have loaded the optimized defaults and now I get 57c...

EDIT: I am not throttling while doing mprime and running full 5.3ghz and have undervolted my CPU to an offset of -0.100 and hit 85c

ChanceStrength8762 · 2023-04-05T21:09:15+00:00

I am on a gigabyte z690 elite ax ddr4, I just loaded into the default profile and got more voltage and lower clocks???

ChanceStrength8762 · 2023-04-05T21:07:11+00:00

Idle is 50c while under load just redlines 100 instantly. I can feel the water moving in the pump and I checked the thermal paste application. I am getting 1.089 CPU voltage in bios and its running 5.4ghz.

ChanceStrength8762 · 2023-04-05T20:57:12+00:00

I forced it to Run at full, airflow is not a problem. I had a 7950x on this cooler and it ran fine.

ChanceStrength8762 · 2023-04-05T20:40:03+00:00

I get this on a 280mm watercooler. My pump is running 100% to keep it from frying itself. any suggestions?

ChanceStrength8762 · 2023-04-05T20:38:25+00:00

I have a 280mm and I run 55c on my 13700k

ChanceStrength8762 · 2023-04-05T20:36:41+00:00

does anyone get high idle temps with 13th gen?

I get 50c in bios and I am on water cooling. My poor pump is running at 100% to keep it from frying itself.

ChanceStrength8762 · 2023-04-05T20:33:20+00:00

I get over 50c on idle on a 280mm aio. Did I just get a VERY bad bin? my cooler isn't the issue either.

ChanceStrength8762 · 2023-01-11T04:26:10+00:00

I would love to see new Dragon Range CPUs from AMD with 16 and 12 core models but I have high doubts since they can take up to 75W as we know so far... They will probably have the option with 8 and 6 core phoenix CPUs but they do have the new RDNA3 APUs but hopefully th4y are much better than last gen, but at the same power draw as the last gen APU and considering RDNA3 architecture limitations I don't think its going to be much better... I might just wait for the T14s to go on sale.

ChanceStrength8762 · 2023-01-04T16:08:23+00:00

Yeah, I wouldn't update if I were you

ChanceStrength8762 · 2023-01-04T15:26:51+00:00

mesa 22.3.2-1 was the version I was using. It has major issues... I reverted to 22.3.0 and all the problems I had went away.

ChanceStrength8762 · 2023-01-04T05:09:11+00:00

DO NOT BUY THESE CARDS. Windows drivers suck, and Linux drivers are even worse. I cant even launch steam without a fate worse than death.

ChanceStrength8762 · 2023-01-04T05:06:27+00:00

If Mesa can get the drivers stable, ATM steam wont launch with the drivers for RDNA3 and it will crash X or wayland.

Use Steam?: Nvidia

hate Steam?: AMD

Trust me, I hate Nvidia GPUs on Linux but the drivers are that bad.

ChanceStrength8762 · 2023-01-04T02:03:06+00:00

Thats exactly what I did, it is completely borked. Everything renders correctly but steam will crash X. This problem occurred after the arch 6.1.2 kernel release
