@ jstefanop - I believe the setup is using server CPU and other things that may make the setup a bit pricey? I was excited about the config but the lack of info is making me lose interest, time to keep building rigs the normal way and MAKE SOME Money................. I'm never a fan of constant teasers, I prefer the FULL SHOW. =)
Nope...skylake/kabylake pentium or i3 work just fine (my dev setup uses an i3 since double the threads is worth it when driving 16 GPUs....but I realized that CPU utilization even for 16 GPUs is so low that a pentium will probably work just fine as well. I will test this week). The motherboard IS a server based board with 1151 socket, but since I will buy these in bulk for this project it will cost less than a typical 6-7 GPU board you guys are using.
Sorry for the lack of info but I deliver what I promise (guys that bought my scrypt USB ASIC miner can vouch on that), so I don't like announcing things early since I'm still in the middle of vetting out the hardware.
What I can promise right now is that this solution will definitely be cheaper in total supporting component costs per GPU with the typical 6-7 GPU setup right now.
