Yup - one on its way to Phil.

I am halfway setting up the boards for the remaining P106 that I got previously (18 pieces) so 3 x 6-P106 rigs with 2 x 1500w HP or 1 x 2400w Delta, and 1 x EVGA1000-G3 to power up the 3 x onboard SATA. Got sidetracked due to my travel commitments, but should be able to continue working on the rigs this week.


@KaydenC -- short answer. NO.

Long answer.

I ordered a test unit awhile ago but it got lost in the mail and courier blamed a technical glitched when the package with my name contained a GPS unit with car mount instead. After 3 weeks chasing them to find the other guy who had my package -- gave up.

Anyways - 8 concurrent 1x streams on a single 16x PCI lane ?? That's a mouth full and further invitation to potential PCI lanes limitations, special drivers, compatible with Windows. Maybe possible in Linux. Anwyays, the search goes on for full 16x slots, like the 6 and 8 x full PCI mobos  we are discussing here on the thread.


I have  4 water cooled cards and the zotac 1080 mini  along with an asus 1080 ti blower card


so

1)1080 ti wc +
2)1080 ti wc +
3)1080 ti wc +
4)1070 wc    +
5)1080 ti      +
6)1080 ti mini

I could keep that cool .


this is possible  but not likely.

I may shoot for  a few variations of setups.

my cards on hand are :

 6x 1080 ti's
 1x 1070
 1x 1050ti

rest are at the solar array and my friends office.

these are 3x  rigs using 2 1080ti's   keeps gear cool and quiet and as it is in his office  it  needs to be quiet  6 cards using 1000 watts to do about 3400h  for zcash
