@ 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.
so what your saying your going to be offering the motherboard for around 70 to 80 dollars? if not its hardly worth it. your still vetting out hardware so to say it will be cheaper in total supporting component costs per gpu is a bit premature. tbh I doubt this setup will be cheaper than compared to a typical 6 to 7 gpu setup not to mention your playin to a niche market and not everyone in that market will see that as viable, I see more points of failure being added etc, thats what I look at. but all in all I guess we all will find out
my question is what happens when you cant deliver on this promise your making that it will be cheaper and it turns out its not, you going to take a hit? doubt it lolz
