usedto,

 

Unfortunately we wouldn't be able to tell you either way, as the A16 GPU isn't officially supported on the R740xd, I see the A10 and A100 listed as supported, but not the A16.

Hello,

 

It is still as Joey mentioned:

"The products which has this capability is on client product, XPS and Alienware."

 

Example:

XPS 8940

Supports resizable base address register (BAR) to improve the graphics performance

I see no reference it is available on the R750.

Hi,

 

I've looked through some engineering notes, it doesn't seem to have any update for BAR support capability. The products which has this capability is on client product, XPS and Alienware.

@DELL-Joey C​ do you know of any solution i can do to get both of my A16 GPUs to work in my r740xd? the error i keep running into is that it suggest i enable BAR support to run both of them simultaneously on ubuntu. at the moment i am only able to use one.
