@phil / citronick and ofc any others

have you used an m2 adapter with the gigabyte 270 d3 / your opinions on m2 to pcie adapters for mining

+

pcie expansion slot adapters / anyone try it with this board yet?

I won't use a m2 breakout.

I killed a board and a card due to a bad adapter.

I have not had a chance to find some 1x pcie.  to 3x pcie break outs.

Citronick has the six slot Board he is going to send one to I may try to use it with a pcie splitter.

I am not a big riser miner.


I also don't need to split .

I have ten mobos that can do thirty five cards with no risers
I could do more cards if I go water block.

I have two more water cooled cards on order.
I may make a lot of water cooled 1070 builds over the next month.



Because of YOU I have spent half of the weekend looking at watercooled GPUs lol.

I have some radiators + plenty of fans + tubing + connectors from Habanero board mining days.
I was looking at cards which do not have pump attached but are full waterblocks.

Like this one:

How are gigabyte cards faring in terms of mining ?
