I've got a few Z270-A Pros, I'm happy with em, 6 GPU native, 8 with splitter

i tried a splitter before never could get it tonwork all the cards power and a blue light comes on on the spitter
but the box just constatly reeboots, do you have the plug in into a specifc slot? I connected the splitters power as well using a 4 pin what specific board you have it working on?

Have somebody problem with MSI Z170A Krait Gaming 3x. Work only 3 cards of 6.

The Z170 boards are not too good for mining.. max 4 cards.. they have memory lane limitations.

They work with 7 GPUs just not all of them. I have an MSI Z170A Gaming m5 with 7x470.

There is plenty of mobos out there , i personally like the gigabyte ,i am using a no. Of gigabyte ultra durable and it works fine for months now , also i don't like using raisers it only generates problems , i would like to set my cards directly on the mobo so i get that mobos with minimum 4x 16xpcie with good psu and forget about it.

Is there a specific model of the gigabyte ultra durable that you reccomend? I'm looking at the gigabyte webpage and there are over 300 model variations of the ultra durable...lol. I'm planning a low budget noob rig and I'm thinking I should settle with 4 16pcie instead of what everybody else seems to recommend, which is 6 or 7 slots.

Here's a good Youtube vid about the best mining motherboards.

And here's one about running 7 GPU cards on a single motherboard.

all this mobos are already cancelled

here is a very good board

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01N2V0AHI/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o07_s00?

will do five tested most likely do six . I don't test past five

I have a i5 7500t psu and I am mining it doing eth and decred

you can use an in g4400t in it 1 stick of ddr4 ram

Hey, when you come out of those 16x slots with a powered usb 1x riser, there's no issues? Or do you use the ribbon flex 16x to 16x? I have heard a bunch of stuff from people about the 1x not working in the 16x slot on the MSI gaming board.

Best,
Norman

I'd go with the Asus H81M Plus. Its got only 4 PCI-E slots but is very cheap and the ratios building rigs with 4 GPUs are much better.
Cheap CPU, 2 cheap PSUs, 4 RX480 Nitro 4GB GPUs.

I don't get the point of purchasing a MB with less than 6 slots tbh...it's not the best way to optimize costs.

2 cheap psu's? You could get a nice 800-850w for the whole system.

In my rig work 4X RX 480, in this motherboard. In the near future I will try to 5 or more. But most likely will need a PCIE switch.

Intel is ending production soon of the 1150 socket CPUs with current 5 week lead times for any new production of the Celeron Chips. Production should end in the front end of the first quarter 2017 and mining motherboards on the 1150 socket shortly there after.

Current channel info says Asrock will be launching an 1151 mining motherboard soon to replace the H97 Anniversary and the Probtc motherboards for mining. In the mean time we are in a bit of a draught with motherboards. I can still get bulk quantities the pro BTC produced with a proper sized order and Celerons.

I would recommend a Biostar TB85 with 1 PCI-Ex16 + 5 PCI-Ex1 (6SATA onboard) but it's very rare.

Don't forget the new AMD CPU comes out Zen line it should help with Ggpu mining

I think it's there first one at any thing lower then 32 mn in while beside the APU that's at 28 i think. if it does what they say CPU miners will love it .

First for AMD but not first period - Intel Skylark series is 14 or 16 nm.

I also don't see the new AMD CPUs helping on GPU mining at all, though they might get competative with recent Intel CPUs on CPU mining.
