    Abstract: A system and method for insuring efficiency of a serial link between a host server and a switch is disclosed. A fabric switch has upstream ports associated with a serial link. A fabric controller is coupled to the switch. A host server includes a BIOS and a management controller. The host server has ports coupled to the serial link ports via cables to form lanes of the serial link. A memory is accessible by the controller and the management controller. The management controller reads an expected speed and width of the serial link from the memory. The BIOS determines an actual speed and width of the serial link. The management controller sends an error message if the actual speed and width do not match the expected speed and width.

    Abstract: A computing device for cooling an electronic component is provided. The computing device includes a chassis with a first end and a second end; fan modules located at the first end of the chassis; and a Peripheral Component Interconnect Express (PCIe) baseboard located at a front side of the chassis. The PCIe baseboard is configured to support placement thereof in the chassis in a first position and a second position. The second position of the PCIe baseboard is a 180-degree rotation from the first position. The PCIe baseboard includes GPU slots for installing a plurality of graphic processing units (GPUs), the GPUs including fan modules.
