HPE
HPE P100Number NVIDIA Tesla P100 16 GB HBM2 video card accessory
An HPE accelerator adding an NVIDIA Tesla P100 GPU with 16 GB HBM2 memory and CUDA cores for compute-intensive workloads
- 16 GB HBM2 memory enables large-model compute
- Thousands of CUDA cores accelerate parallel workloads
- HPE Q0E21A integrates with select ProLiant servers
- Purpose-built for power-efficient supercomputing
- New condition ensures full factory reliability
HPE Tesla P100 16 GB Accelerator
The HPE NVIDIA Tesla P100 16 GB HBM2 accelerator targets organisations that need high performance computation or graphics inside select HPE ProLiant servers. Its thousands of CUDA cores divide large models into concurrent tasks for faster simulations and improved fidelity. It is built for power efficient supercomputing workloads.
Upgrade From CPU Only Compute
This card replaces a CPU only approach when traditional processor technology cannot keep up with increasing computational demands. The jump is worth it when workloads require dramatically higher application acceleration for scientific or commercial deployments. It integrates GPU computing into existing HPE server families for scale out deployments.
Server Slot Installation
Installation consists of seating the accelerator into a compatible slot within a supported HPE ProLiant server chassis. What usually goes wrong is attempting to install the card in an unsupported server model or neglecting the required firmware and driver stack for the specific ProLiant family. Verify server compatibility before fitting.

Questions about this item
Does the 16 GB HBM2 card fit a standard full-height PCIe slot in an HPE ProLiant server?
The HPE Q0E21A is built for select HPE ProLiant families and occupies a full-height, full-length PCIe slot; verify your server’s supported accelerator list and available power connectors before purchase.
What is the common installation mistake with the HPE Q0E21A accelerator?
Installers often forget to attach the auxiliary power cables from the server’s power supply to the card, leaving the GPU without the 100 W it needs for compute workloads.
When should the thermal paste on the NVIDIA Tesla P100 be replaced?
Plan to refresh the thermal interface material every two to three years or whenever the card is removed for cleaning, as dried paste reduces cooling efficiency on the HBM2 memory and GPU die.
