https://youtu.be/i8tSXTqJVxQBBT Carter and Mrs. BBT walks the community through a livestream on a 12x GPU Mining Rig rocking the Gigabyte RX 580 4GB cards ; BBT Tested Custom Strap. Total output on Ethereum, Ubiq, and DCR; Dual Mining Performance. More work needs to be done (lowering voltages, pulling more power usage out of it; but this is initial build)

Going to be doing a ASUS Z270 PRIME build with 8, using 2x M.2 Adaptors and showing folks how we get those to work. There has been a lot of questions/concerns with issues using those M2 adaptors and we will go through a cradle to grave 8x build with them in an upcoming episode.
