This thread will take a while to get through simply because it has so much amazing information.  It's basically a huge discussion of exactly what you're doing.  It's worth the read.

This will be more interesting once he has the cards to get the configurations, the bioses and so. Until that point, I think he do not need to go throught it all and can just ask it here.

Well that is a major farm on a small piece of property. It is over 100 gpus.


@ the op  how many rigs is your goal?

Three six card rigs? total of 18 cards?

In the winter i was as high as 11 four card rigs and 1 panda miner a grand total of 52 cards.  At that point the heat becomes an issue.  I could have enough power for 100 cards but my wife would try to kill me if I do that.
I wind my mine down  as the hot weather approaches for heat issues and New Jersey power rates Jump up from 12.5 to 16.7 cents four months of the year.
I am down to 8 nvidia and 8 amd cards  using 6 mobos.  lots of room to add cards but that won't happen until OCT.

I have 4 soon to be 7 nvidia 1080 ti's
I have 1 -------------- nvidia 1080
I have 2--------------- nvidia 1070's
I have 1 -------------- nvidia  1060

I have 8 amd rx 480's

I plan to get rid of the nvidia 1060 the 2 1070's and the 1 nvidia 1080

keep the 7 nvidia 1080 ti's
keep the 8 rx 480's
