The NVIDIA Tesla M60 is a dual-slot 10.5 inch PCI Express Gen3 graphics card with two high-end NVIDIA Maxwell graphics processing units (GPUs). The Tesla M60 has 16 GB GDDR5 memory and a 300 W maximum power limit. The board is offered in a 300 W passively cooled variant that requires system airflow to properly operate the card within its thermal limits. It is designed for single precision GPU compute tasks as well as to accelerate graphics in virtual remote workstation and virtual desktop environments.
A main feature of the Tesla M60 board is the support of the NVIDIA GRID software which includes NVIDIA GRID vGPU. This technology enables the virtualization of physical GPUs into full-featured virtual GPUs providing maximum performance and scalability. For performance optimization this board utilizes NVIDIA GPU Boost. By adjusting the GPU clock dynamically, maximum performance is achieved within the power cap limit.
In addition, Tesla M60 doubles the number of H.264 encoders over the NVIDIA Kepler GPU architecture and also includes H.265 encoding ability. This improves encoding quality, which will enable richer colors, preserve more details after video encoding, and results in a high-quality user experience.
