Title: Motherboards with power buttons and without Post by: blg42598 on June 26, 2016, 07:08:06 AM How do I power on motherboards without power buttons? Is there something I can buy to easily start it? What good motherboards are there for mining that can hold 6 GPUs and has a power button?

Or the H97 anniversary. There are no power button on h97 aniversary. You don't need power button, just short the pins with a screwdriver when it's time to turn on the rig. If all goes well you almost never have to turn it on again, it is always on. Title: Re: Motherboards with power buttons and without Post by: bathrobehero on June 26, 2016, 02:45:05 PM I just short the legs to start them but I also have "Restore on AC power loss - Power On" setup in the Bios so whenever the computer is plugged in, it will start automatically.
Basically if I switch the PSU on, the PC will start.

Title: Re: Motherboards with power buttons and without Post by: Redrose on June 28, 2016, 11:02:14 AM I wired up a case to my motherboard, since with all the problems I got with my rig, I have to turn it on quite a lot. For the next one, which should better finished, I'll simply use on of these buttons Amph provided me a picture of.
