  • Decklink Extreme 3D+ HDMI plate in PCIe slot 4?

    Posted by Sean Kapleton on July 4, 2011 at 7:55 pm

    Just to clarify an earlier configuration question I had posted:

    I have slot 4 at the top OPEN so can I just connect the 2 HDMI cables to the back of my decklink card and then put the plate in that top slot which is available…it does seem a little crammed in there but as of right now none of the cables from the HDMI plate OR the GTX 285 are touching any of the fans or cards themselves. Other threads were suggesting drilling holes and the like but I assume all of those users had RAID cards where as on my system I just have an 8TB internal software RAID.

    Any thoughts or opinions on this config would be great! I cant really afford the whole external RAID & Cubix options – at least I dont think I can – have not checked prices lately for either.

    So right now I have:

    slot 4 – HDMI plate (plugged into Decklink card sitting directly below)
    slot 3 – Decklink Extreme3D+
    Slot 2 – Nvidea GT 120
    Slot 1 – Nvidea GTX 285

    This looks like a good config and should perform well for HD.

    Sean,

    Cubix GPU-Xpander Desktop 2 prices have been running between $1800-$2200 depending upon the backplane configuration and the data cable channels supported. Reference Cubix part no’s XPDT-X8-24-OSV (No. America), XPDT-X8-24-INT (everywhere else), XPDT-X16-24-OSV and XPDT-X16-24-INT with your Resolve dealer. All SKUs listed feature four PCIe Gen2 x16 slots for single-width PCIe cards like Quadro 4000, 750W power supply, 1m data cable + HIC (host interface card).
