NVIDIA 900-2G179-0020-000 A2 16GB GDDR6 128bit Graphics card
The NVIDIA A2 (part number 900-2G179-0020-000) is a low-profile, passively cooled datacenter GPU built on the NVIDIA Ampere architecture, aimed at system integrators and IT resellers deploying compact servers for AI inference, video analytics, and virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI). With 16GB of GDDR6 on a 128-bit memory interface, it targets workloads where density, power efficiency, and multi-GPU scaling matter more than peak compute. Note that as a datacenter card it is designed for server chassis airflow rather than desktop use, so confirm thermal and slot compatibility before integration.
Key specifications (table)
| Parameter | Specification |
|---|---|
| Part number | 900-2G179-0020-000 |
| Brand | NVIDIA |
| Product family | NVIDIA A2 (Ampere architecture datacenter GPU) |
| Memory capacity | 16GB GDDR6 |
| Memory interface | 128-bit |
| API support | DirectX support (version depends on driver and platform) |
| Form factor | Low-profile datacenter design (passive cooling, server chassis required) |
Good to know
- Compatibility: The A2’s low-profile, passive-thermal design requires a supported server platform with adequate front-to-back airflow; it is not intended for standard desktop towers. Verify PCIe slot clearance and host server compatibility (hypervisor, driver stack) with your vendor.
- Within the family: The A2 sits at the entry point of NVIDIA’s Ampere datacenter GPU lineup, positioned below the A10 and A30 for inference-first, power-constrained deployments rather than large-scale training, which typically calls for higher-tier SKUs.
- Buying tip: Confirm the exact part number (900-2G179-0020-000) and memory configuration against your bill of materials before ordering, and request current stock, pricing, and lead-time details from your account manager, as availability of datacenter SKUs varies by region.
For tray and reel pricing, current stock by part number and date code, and volume discounts on bulk orders, request a bulk quotation.
