NVIDIA Tesla K40 12GB GDDR5 PCIe Server GPU Accelerator

Unleash Enterprise-Grade Parallel Computing Power at an Unbeatable Liquidation Price

If you've been searching for a high-performance CUDA compute accelerator without the enterprise price tag, I have something special in my Electronics & Gadgets inventory today. The NVIDIA Tesla K40 12GB GDDR5 PCIe Server GPU Accelerator is a genuine data center workhorse — built on NVIDIA's legendary Kepler architecture and engineered for the most demanding parallel computing, deep learning, and scientific simulation workloads. This unit is sealed in its original anti-static protective bag, sourced through verified retail liquidation channels, and available now in my Deals & Price Drops at a fraction of its original $5,499.00 MSRP. Whether you're building a home lab, expanding a research cluster, or upgrading a server rack, this card belongs in your Tech Essentials toolkit.

Why the Tesla K40 Still Matters

Originally released as NVIDIA's flagship compute accelerator for enterprise data centers, the Tesla K40 remains a capable and cost-effective solution for CUDA-based workloads, machine learning inference, scientific computing, and parallel data processing. With 2,880 CUDA cores, 12 GB of ECC-protected GDDR5 memory, and a 384-bit memory interface delivering 288 GB/s of bandwidth, this card handles large datasets and complex compute tasks that would overwhelm consumer-grade GPUs. The passive heatsink design means zero fan noise and zero fan failure risk — ideal for server environments with dedicated chassis airflow.

Installation Instructions

Turn off and disconnect system power before installation. Install the Tesla K40 into a compatible server or workstation PCIe 3.0 x16 slot with adequate high-velocity chassis airflow. Connect the standard 6-pin and 8-pin PCIe power cables from your power supply. Enable "Above 4G Decoding" in your motherboard BIOS settings. Install the appropriate NVIDIA Data Center or CUDA drivers for your operating system.

Safety & Condition Notes

WARNING: The Tesla K40 uses a passive cooling design that requires active forced-air cooling from server chassis fans. Operating this card without sufficient airflow will cause rapid thermal throttling or GPU shutdown and may damage the card. This card is NOT recommended for open-air desktop use without an aftermarket active cooling solution attached. Always power down and disconnect your system before installation.
