@ Citronick, What CPU would you recommend for that board? i3, i5?
ram? I'm thinking about getting one too.
Thanks for any info.

does look cool a 13 card board.
I have to think use an i5 6400t but not sure.
Wouldnt you need like an i7? i wouldnt think the i3 and i5 have enough pcie bandwidth... my understandings is each 1x pcie slot reserves 2 channels on pcie controller..... the motherboard may be compatible with the lower cpu's but do they have enough channels to fully use the motherboard fully??
ive read that i3 with 16 channels can only support up to 8 gpu's max
ive read that i5 with 16 channels can only support up to 8 gpu's max
ive read that i7 with 28 channels can only support up to 14 gpu's max
Hi
I have several rigs with msi z97 gaming 5, all with 7 amd gpu, so i decided to build a rig with 7 nvidia gpu with this type of mobo, it detected all 7 gpus in device manager but one gpu has error code 12 ( not enough resource), it is not to mention that it tried everything in bios also i replaced some gtx 1070 with gtx 970 because of one post i read in this forum about difference between amd and nvidia in pcie lane handling in among of gpus memory, no success at all, cpu was g3260 and i tried both win 7 and 10, i don't know what is difference between amd and nvidia here!
as for hedging I sold 1.3 btc today I will keep it as cash.
