Hi,
I have been sitting on those for a while deciding whether I need/want/can afford more than the two I got but I think not so up for grabs now Also been waiting since I had not tested them end to end (see below) but I think they should be fine (1 month return, new item so has warranty as well).
Disclaimer: I am not affiliated and not benefiting from this but I have discussed intensively with the seller so I have a lot of info to share.
1. If the title is not clear - these are *new* Mellanox CX4 - 456 PCIe3 x16 EDR 100GBs VPI Cards with Dual Ports with LP adapter. You *do* need an electrical x16 slot for those to work properly
2. Those are the cheapest I have ever seen on dual port EDR cards, those are DELL OEM but flash easily to Mellanox standard firmware (done one of my two without issues at this point in time). The OEM part number is rather uncommon, have not been able to find it referenced anywhere, there are o/c several possible implications.
I have not actually put mine into my cluster yet (due to my issue with the Fujitsu board i posted in the mainboard section) but I have seen no issues whatsoever with these cards, so from my point of view they are ok.
2.Total 20 are available at this price point, if you get 5+ they are willing to do 5% discount but I'd request to not do bulk buying so everybody can get some I post this on a Saturday intentionally to hinder this
Shipping to EU is available on Ebay directly, international shipping possible on request.
VAT deductible on request as well. Return possible,

Have fun.
