Hi, I want to buy miners with 6 1080ti but I have some doubts, I read that the 1080ti founder edition are the best models of 1080ti to mine, is it true ?, another question, to move 6 1080ti that motherboard model is good? and last question , Is a 1600 power supply correct or does it need more power? Thanks.
6 1080ti requires 12 8pin cables,single 1600W PSU   cannot  supply so  many, dual 1000w is fine.


z270a motherboard its ok then. Best models of 1080ti to mine? founder edition, asus strix, gigabyte aourous xtrem? Or is it not important?

I got many FE 1080tis and 2 Evga 1080ti SC2. The Evga cards mine Skein at 970 - 980mh/s while the FEs do 920 - 950mh/s, all at 80% TDP. I guess because the FEs are hitting 75 degrees, they may be throttling slightly.

My FE cards were bought at $659, while the Evga was $719. FE cards are still better value, but if it's just $20 difference, might as well get a dual or triple fan design, their resell value is better too.
