a 300w (max) gpu is a perfect fit for a 3 gpu rig config..like a 900w for 3x card plus system power consumption......a perfect fit for a 1200w psu (1200w is a sweet spot for power-price-density-power efficiency ratio)
Exactly! Three cards, one motherboard, one psu, no crappy risers. Powerful and fail proof setup.
i use risers, boards that can handle those 3 to 4 gpus are too expensive or rare etc..
3 risers will be a lot easier to troubleshoot than finding the bad riser in a 8 card riser rig..shuffling by trial and error, testing your spares phew! haha
