Hi, I would like to create a rig, I have searched and liked to have asus prime z270-a , with 7 asus geforce gtx 1060 6gb .
Please:
1- Does it support 6gb on all 7 pci ports (just not to be a waist)?
2- what riser to use to conncet the graphic cards to the motherboard as the PCIs are different
3- For this configuration what do you suggest in term of Power supply, HDD, RAM memory and CPU?
Thank u
as said before, go for 1070
1-i think yes it should support 7 gpus in pcie through risers and 1 in m.2 to pcie reduction

2-its hard to tell, all are made in china (dont know but dont try those narrow ones:

3-psu is only about numbers of lines for gpus (8 gpu lines has only 1200++++ watts psu, you need only 6 (almost all 850++ watts psu) or you can combine 2 pus together ... like 650+550 one in mb, one with sortcut), ram 4 gigs for windows (and i think 1gb for linux is overkill
), any hdd/ssd (you can use any hdd even with 5400rpm, there is almost no useage of hdd in mining itselfs) and cpu cheapest ones you can get (same as hdd)
