How many GPUs can you fit on a Gaming Motherboard? (Mining Rig build)

[@johncollins3910]

Sebs Fin "I just got an extra 50 GPUs laying around"

[@lakmalchathu121]

can you send few

[@DavidSteele]

Love the video Seb, and love how you show appreciation that thanks that we click on the video to watch. Thanks for sharing. :)

[@G4briel132]

Hey Seb, great video. You just made me know that I could have more GPUs in my P9X79 old gpu. Its like I have 3 pci-e x16/x16/x8 and 2 pci-e x1. Now I am just trying to understand how many I could have with the pci-e splitters! xD Thx a lot for the video!

[@dontsupportrats4089]

look up your cpu and see how many pcie lanes it can control. even if your board has 20 lanes available, your cpu might not run that many. (really rough description sorry)

[@bbgcars]

AWESOME BRUH! I THINK YOURE THE FIRST ONE IVE SEEN THAT ACTUALLY MADE THOSE SPLITTERS WORK! SO NOW I KNOW I CAN SAVE A LOT OF MONEY BY USING THEM INSTEAD OF BUYING A MINING SPECIFIC MOTHERBOARD.

[@SebsFinTechChannel]

Cool 😎

[@arcangelomassari]

This video blew my mind. Thanks, Seb.

[@MrSouthside600]

Great info on your channel Seb. I also gave this a go and was able to get a max of 13 gpu's on a gaming board. Asus Prime Z 270-p 4 x grt 3080, 6 x rtx 3070, 2 x rtx 3060ti and a rtx 3060. the chipset on this board has a lot of pcie lanes.

I did this myself as i found good deals on gpus. Im up to 8 on my mother board. The problem i have is the 3500x only has 16 pcie lanes not the 24 that AMD has on their other cpus. The board i used had an m.2 ssd left in it so 4 of those 16 are being occupied.

Theoretically yes but unfortunately you’re probably going to run into other limitations in your system like how many PCIe lanes your CPU+motherboard combination can support. I have a video where I tried to fit 16 GPUs on a single motherboard, you might find that one interesting: kzbin.info/www/bejne/p3qZaJ56pbugZtU

I don’t see why not! :) Just know at some point you might run into other limitations than how many GPUs you can physically plug into the motherboard, like how many PCIe lanes your CPU+motherboard combo can support. I actually have two other videos about those fantastic little adapters, one going through more how they work: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qpzUYaWAp6-mopI and one where I use one to try to plug 16 GPUs into one motherboard: kzbin.info/www/bejne/p3qZaJ56pbugZtU

Hey dude, love your videos. Had a question for you. I have a nice liquid cooled 2070 super gaming pc, but the mother board has 6 pcie slots. Is there a way to add a 5 card rig, with its own power supply, to the gaming PC?

[@SebsFinTechChannel]

Absolutely. What you can do is plug those four GPUs in on risers onto your motherboard and power them with a separate power supply. Just make sure you link that power supply up to your main power supply with something like an Add2PSU chip. Good luck!

[@spyghetti]

do you set your miner bat file configs to control the overclocks on the multiple gpus when you start the miner or do you do it all in MSI AB individually? I know Hive makes this much easier.

[@SebsFinTechChannel]

For 6x1660 Supers you need 720W plus about 150W for a base rig is 870W then add 25% for safety means you’d need roughly 1100W. If you want to learn more about safely powering your mining rigs I recommend you watch this video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/g3q6YZxtiNF8j6s good luck!

Can you Share what motherboard bios settings you used? As your board has 7 pci-e and 2 x m.2 slots so technically 9 pcie slots. So with 9 pcie splitters can we run 9x4 - 36 gpus in it? using windows or hiveos? Also are you running in Gen1 or Gen 2 speed in bios?

[@SebsFinTechChannel]

You can see all bios settings in my latest video! :) As for adding 36 GPUs on one motherboard. Unfortunately you will run into other limitations other than how many GPUs you can physically plug into your rig. Like how many PCIe devices your motherboard+cpu combo supports. Good luck!

[@hadikhan63]
