Hi Bitcointalk community,

I was planning to run 8X RTX 3070 on my mining rig with the Asus Prime Z390-A Motherboard.
I already have a mining rig with that motherboard running 8X GTX 1660 Super but only with one EVGA PSU 1000W.

To run 8X RTX 3070 I bought an EVGA PSU 1300W which is enough for the power but the problem I was not expecting is that most of the RTX 3070 have 2X 8-pin or 8-pin + 6-pin power connectors so I don't have enough PCI-e cables from my EVGA PSU 1300W. I need another PSU.

I am planning to buy an EVGA PSU 850W with a 24 Pin Male to Female Dual PSU Power Supply Cable like this:

I guess I should always connect a riser and a gpu to the same PSU but other than that is it safe to use 2 PSU on a mining rig?

Is there something to do in the BIOS?

Any suggestions for which 24 Pin Male to Female Dual PSU Power Supply Cable to buy?

Thank you guys!
