    DeepLearning11 PCIe switch chips

    Yes, perfect! The PEX9797 is a different chip than I expected, but looking at the datasheet it makes sense. Thanks so much, Patrick.

    DeepLearning11 PCIe switch chips

    That 11 slot PCIe expansion board in your GIF, the X9DRG-O-PCI, is NOT the 12 slot PCIe expansion board X10DRG-O-PCIE that is in DeepLearning11. If you remain unconvinced, go read the build article that talks about why DeepLearning11 is designed to be a single-root GPU cluster. The difference...

    DeepLearning11 PCIe switch chips

    ...that's not the manual for the X10DRG-O-PCIE

    DeepLearning11 PCIe switch chips

    OK, sure, it could use a Microsemi PCIe switch instead. That's why I'm looking for confirmation on the part number. I have read the manual and it was silent on this matter.

    DeepLearning11 PCIe switch chips

    A poke through Broadcom's site suggests it could be a PEX8796, but confirmation would be great.

    DeepLearning11 PCIe switch chips

    Does anyone know which PCIe switch chips are used in the Supermicro X10DRG-O-PCIE? I'm after the actual PLX part number. Maybe Patrick can run a lspci on DeepLearning11 for me? Also, if anyone knows if the x16 PCIe slots can be bifurcated to x4,x4,x4,x4 that would be nice to know, too. You...
