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?

You can unplug and set the bios to keep the mainboard as the primary output, or just try and hook each of the cards up to a screen and see if it gives you an output. When you get it booted install something like VNC so you can login from your computer and maintain the rig that way.
Nicehash is a gentle introduction and will let you test your hardware and know it's working.. but fees / profit rate aren't great.. if you want more profit you'll have to go for something like Nemo's, Awesome or similar and a pool
