Topic: Which mobo? (Read 722 times)
with 3 GPU like that you will need to run open case or with riser, so any cheap motherboard with 3 PCIe will do.
Thank you for the response, it's exactly what I was looking for!
Get the AMD board since it's only used for mining. PCIe bus speed has no effect with GPU mining.
If you have a Micro Center near by they have pretty good CPU/motherboard deals. I've found that AMD boards, in general, use a bit more power than Intel counterparts. Try to go with a simple single- or dual-core CPU and undervolt if possible.

I am ordering the components to build a mining rig, and I am wondering which mobo would be best? I am using 3 of these cards:

My question is this, since these cards support PCIe 3.0 do I need a mobo that will have 3 slots that all are 3.0, or will a board like this one be fine for mining? This rig will only be used for mining.

Or would I get a more efficient rig using one of these?
