also, curious, you're using one 1x->16x pci express expander? do you have any wires shorted Title: Re: [WTS] 4x5970 $1150 shipped Post by: superfastkyle on September 30, 2012, 05:54:35 AM huh I'm pretty sure running a 5970 on a 1x slot is impossible, you need at least one lane a gpu I think...

Quote from: 420 link=action=profile;u=60969 date=1348952878 okay. for your rig do you have a 1x->16x expander and did you have to short wires? [/quote I'm using 2 standard 16x-->16x, 1 powered 16x-->16x and 1 1x-->16x Title: Re: [WTS] 4x5970 $1150 shipped Post by: abracadabra on October 01, 2012, 04:45:42 AM huh I'm pretty sure running a 5970 on a 1x slot is impossible, you need at least one lane a gpu I think... howbout two BFL single orders for these also, curious, you're using one 1x->16x pci express expander? do you have any wires shorted wut? So none of my 5970s on a 1x are actually mining? Dammit.. that's probably why they haven't found a block yet :D Title: Re: [WTS] 4x5970 $1150 shipped Post by: 420 on October 01, 2012, 04:52:13 AM huh I'm pretty sure running a 5970 on a 1x slot is impossible, you need at least one lane a gpu I think... howbout two BFL single orders for these also, curious, you're using one 1x->16x pci express expander? do you have any wires shorted wut?

I had a 6970 running in the rig on a 1x at one point, I know that for sure. I'm not sure it matters though, 1x can handle 250mb/s and that's more than enough for mining.

At one point I had 3 6970s and 2 6950s, that's when I was forced to use one of the 1x slots |
