Why don't you get the GTX1070, should be much higher mh/s, my gtx1060 does only 20.5-21mh/s.

Thank u.

does it connect to PCIe x1 ? is it efficient? and what to use to connect ?

You must use PCI-E risers for that. Check this for some info about profitability: https://www.nicehash.com/index.jsp?p=calc

oh thats great thanks, can u suggest what type of riser exactly to get as the motherboard has 3 pcie x16 + 4 pcie x1 ?

Hi,

I ordered myself these: https://www.amazon.com/6-Pack-PCI-E-Powered-Adapter-Extension/dp/B01N3UVJHM/ref=as_li_ss_tl?ie=UTF8&qid=1495870194&sr=8-1-spons&keywords=usb+pci-e+riser&psc=1&linkCode=sl1&tag=mylifegadgets-20&linkId=bcf6f982a54b3d4dee0ead7d8a8f1c7e

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 https://www.aliexpress.com/store/product/Free-shipping-NGFF-to-PCI-e-4x-Slot-Riser-Card-M-key-M-2-SSD-Port/623732_32248406559.html but still you need view some guides to properly set BIOS and OS

2-its hard to tell, all are made in china (dont know but dont try those narrow ones: http://sintech.cn/photo/pc%20Riser%20Card%20/1X-16X-3.jpg )

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 Cheesy ), 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)
