Currently using a Z170A MSI M5 board. Guess it's back to MC to try a Z270 board.

I used the Z170A M5 for my two linux/470/570 rigs. Works flawlessly. But for VEGA was reading it's really finniky with boards. So I broke down and bought the slitghty more expensive (even more so on Amazon) Asrock H110 Pro+ board. I only need 4 of the 13 slots, but people reporting good results for Vega (even though the reviews people complain about it a lot).
Yes I have several of the M5's and they work amazing for 8 570s.

Thank you for this. It's available same day shipping for me. It'll be here this afternoon.

In the meantime I grabbed THREE different boards from MC to try them out as well.
How are you getting on with the new boards, dude?
Expecting my Onda D1800 any day now, can't wait to start inflicting myself the pain of trying to get 6 Vegas to hash... Tongue Cheesy
Each of the 3 have their own problems not allowing them to work correctly. My "same day shipping" order from Amazon never arrived  Roll Eyes
Oh man.
That's a major pain in the @ss. If the Vega's work on the Onda mobo I'll definitely let you know.
I've got all the parts for the rig except said mobo and an extension lead so I reckon I'll be ready to crack on some time next week.


You are a masochist  Cheesy 

The blockchain driver is really resource hungry @ 8 cards. It,s going to take ages getting anythi g done on that rig with its subpar cpu....
The Onda D1800 is six-slot.
Really hoping it'll work. Otherwise it's gonna be back to the drawing board... Tongue
