I built similar frame by myself and realized later the spreading between cards was a bit too tight resulting to more heat bein generated and making any maintenance a bit painful. When I was making my 2nd frame I made it wider and it is so much more comfortable to work on and has way less heat issues.

[@thecaptain2000]

you seem to have multiple raisers plugged into the same slot, is that correct? how do you do that?

[@TechBytesRN]

Would like to request that you create a video showing how to setup a 1 or 2 GPU miner. I have been using ASIC miners and would like to kick the tires on a GPU miner. Thinking about this as a proof of concept which is why i am looking setting a 1 or 2 gpu miner. Want the chassis to reflect this. Not looking for a barn burner in turns of performance but to get an idea as to if I want to proceed and build a proper gpu miner.

[@sneezyferret6482]

How do you get windows 10 to recognize the graphics cards? I have three plugged into a Biostar TB250 but only one is available in the device manager. I have been in the bios and set mining to enabled and set the pci slots to gen1. None of the 2 gpus on the riser cards are visible. The only gpu available is the one plugged into the motherboard. I have swapped out riser cards and usb cables, updated the mobo drivers etc. etc. but nothing works. Do you have any videos on this aspect? This is proving to be the most difficult/frustrating part.

[@mibouwer22]

you should move the fan's cable to the other side. this will eliminate any chance of inductive currents being formed (how small they are)

hi! thanks for the video! technical question: i have just a regular PSU, and there are only 3 PCIe slots and 3 cables for it. These cables are 8 pins female - 2 x 8 pins male. my 3 GPUs are 2 x 8 pins and i am using 1 splitter for each cable and that results - 3 x 8 pins for each cable that can power 1 GPU + 1 riser, so basically 1 cable with splitter for 1 GPU with riser. I am doing this for couple of months. Is it OK? or is super dangerous? thanks

Your doing exactly what's right! So your good!!

6Pins are able to deliver 75W of Power on two 8pins able to get 300w in...no wunder some cables are burning out. A GPU can get 75w from the PCIE means if you split 75W to two risers you will have just 50 percent you need. So there are two options you PSU is able to deliver more..means unsafe for the cables or PSU switches off.

[@jonfox5064]

Love the content very educational thanks for all your work! I want to get into mining but an hesitant because of the prices on gpu’s would you recommend biting the bullet and getting newer cards, slightly older cards, or just waiting for prices to drop?

[@MiningChamber]

Thank you!! I honestly cant give you financial advice but what I am doing is keeping an eye open and trying super hard to get gpus are MSRP (specifically the RTX 3000 Series because they can mine more than just Ethereum when Ethereum moves to POS) and here and there I would buy one for more than MSRP. Its an investment and I am aware that it can go sideways ;) so only investing what I can afford to lose

[@nectar8449]
