Not for mining, it's intended for use in "Deep Learning" AI related software acceleration.
So there is not interest for us miners?

There may be considerable interest if the guys at VectorDash http://vectordash.com/ get it off the ground.
Claims AI researchers pay at least double the best crypto mining rates to use your nVidia GPU's to run their ML training sets on your GPU's.

x1 risers are a bit of a drawback.  Maybe I'll put together a B8PLUS 8 https://octominer.com/shop/octominer_b8plus/ with a few Sophon SC PCIe cards https://sophon.ai/product/view.html?product_id=000201710181659398323r05Yqq8067F&template=sc1-detail if Bitmain will ever ship this product.
