Ok, bought 12 sapphires, and 3 of everything else. Going to add another mobo and fixing asap. So I will start running 3 rigs with 4 cards each, and will thin them to 4 rigs ASAP.
Noob questions begin here.
1. How do I run the 4 gpus off the mobo listed? Can anyone provide a link to the required extra gear or cables needed. I did upgrade the psu to 1000's already btw
2. How do I clone the harddrives for mining?
3. I got long risers which will space the gpu's no less than 6" apart in a fan like set up, space is not a concern for me. Will this provide adequate cooling space for the 4 gpu on 1 mobo set up in the beginning?
Any tips and suggestions would be great.
Thanks!
iam not sure if 4x 7950 will work stable with a 1000psu. it will depend on the corevoltage of each card.
i got 2x gigabyte7950, this version is overclocked out of the box with a locked corevoltage of 1,25. each card pulls about 320W, so 4x them would be too much for a 1000w psu
flash your bios.
i did with mine, so it's no longer hitting 1.25.
i can overclock slightly more...but still kinda high.
