Got the rig powered up with 3 x 1070 TI. I plugged in the 3 usb risers (powered by 4 pin molex not sata connector), and well the monitor wouldn't work with motherboard video. I presume I need to plug it in to one of the video cards for the time being to adjust the bios for which is the primary display?
Do I need to plug the cards directly into the board first when setting up the drivers?
I got two driver CD's.. one frm MSI and one from ASUS. Both for 1070 ti. Should I just go to nvidia web site and download the latest 1070 ti driver and ignore the drivers on the CD's?
http://oi68.tinypic.com/67mbz7.jpgYou can remove all external GPUs and boot with the onboard GPU. Then in the BIOS, there should be an option to always use the onboard GPU in multi-GPU case. Then you can connect your external GPUs and have the onboard GPU work. I find this setup better because you dont depend on any of the external GPUs to be connected to the 16x motherboard slot directly.
