The Dell R760XS Rack Server has 2 Heatsinks options that will change based on the TDP of the Processors. The Dell R760xs also has 3 different types of Fans; Standard, Silver, and Gold Fans. These fans will be changed based on other components installed. Below is a table outlining those changes.
Heatsink (HSK) TDP Rules
If the processor's TDP is below 185W an STD HSK will be installed otherwise the Highperformance HSK will be installed.
Except the 12 Bay Chassis with a Processor that has a TDP below 125W supports the Standard Heatsink.
Fan Config Rules
Optional fan zone 1 has to be populated with HPR Gold fan for BOSS, GPU, or rear drive module populations. A fan blank is required on fan zone 1 when no fan is populated

The LOM and OCP are great ways to expand the networkability of the server. The LOM is built into the system board and supports 2x 1GbE ports. While the Optional OCP 3.0 supports 4 ports up to speeds of 25Gb/s. If the OCP card is installed without the rear riser, The OCP air shroud must be installed.
These networking slots don’t take up a PCIe lane which allows you more flexibility and freedom to configure your server how you see fit. If you have any concerns about the right card for your build. Please reach out to us via email or chat.
LOM Ports:
1 GB x 2
OCP Ports:1 GbE x 4, 10 GbE x 2, 10 GbE x 4, 25 GbE x 2, 25 GbE x 4
