What? Not having a display output is not the same as not having graphics rendering circuitry. Here's vulkaninfo from an A100 box: https://gist.github.com/eiz/c1c3e1bd99341e11e8a4acdee7ae4cb4

This may not contradict what I said. Do you know for a fact these things are implemented using dedicated hardware?
