[question] worthwhile GPU that fits in a 3U chassis?

I built a system around a 3U chassis, then tried to stuff a GPU in the box and couldn’t close the lid. I got a 4U chassis and rebuilt the system, but I still have the 3U and I’m thinking about filling it back out so I have a failover for Proxmox. Is there a GPU I should consider or just stick with the integrated graphics? I’m currently only using the GPU for Steam remote play using pass-though to a Windows VM, but Jellyfin, Frigate, Immich are on my to-do list.

If it’s a backup server why not build a system around an CPU with an integrated GPU? Some of the APUs from AMD aren’t half bad.

Particularly if it’s just your backup… and you can live without games/video/acceleration while you repair your primary?

That’s probably the plan, though I see an Intel a380 low-profile for all of $100 that might be useful for some encode/decode tasks

Look at workstation cards. Things like the T1000 for example.

You could look into low profile GPUs. Off the top of my head, the 3050 is probably the strongest of those, unless you’re willing to look into the A-class cards
