Why Stop @ 7 GPU mining Rig.

I am building a 18 GPU Mining Rig with the following bad boy:

Grin

you already know this article? https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=64450.0

600 USD from his source, or near double - so 1200 USD directly by trentonsystems..... i think the starting invest just for a board is to high. for 100 USD each i get a 5 - 6 GPU supporting Board. so with 500 - 600 USD i will get 25 - 36 GPUS.

Just CPU and RAM you will save a little.

I have Ordered 4 of these: https://mineshop.eu/cables/pcie-adapter-1-to-3-slots-detail

still waiting for testing if they are supported by SMOS. I have already made my Rigs with a 1700 - 2000 Watt PSU system. so it would be great if these extenders would work. Unser Windows they are already running. but still dont know about linux support.

Yes very familiar with that Topic on trenton system.

BTW whats the theoretical limit on how many Gpu can you support for mining with the 1 to 3 pcie adapter i wonder if that would or could work.

Let me now your experience in details.

Guntis (owner of mineshop) told me he is running 9 cards per board under windows.

Linux support is unknown Form his side.

I habe 2 Gigabyte fx990 ud5 rev. 3. Just can run 5 cards, Windows and linux. Want per board 7 or 9 cards. Besteht case would be every port witha Splitter. So theoretical 15 cards.
