Tried SMOS last night.  To far in the rabbit hole as it is to really start diving into that as well.

I upgraded the Ram from 4GB to 8GB.  Debating on if I should put the other 4GB in a also (kind of old fashioned with installing matching pairs though)
I changed the bus speed back down to 32, and the PCI type to Gen 1

Still messing with Ethereum, need to get other wallets/pools setup and figured out.

All 3 cards are coming up with Windows boot regularly now.

The system was able to mine with the BBT miner set (Claymore Dual on nanopool) for 35 mins.

Moving in the right direction, but running out things I know to trouble shoot.



I've read this motherboard tends to have issues for whatever reason, but I would guess there's probably +/-'s for most boards.  I went ahead and picked up a Gigabyte Z270-HD3 mother board and i3 processor incase I want to scrap it and start over, but I feel it's coming along....just need a few more kinks worked out.
