Title: got an i7-7700 and a Z270 board - will let you know, whether itīs good 4 mining Post by: PanneKopp on December 26, 2016, 06:58:34 PM Hi Folks,
I got an i7-7700 and a Z270 board - will let you know, wether itīs good 4 mining. I will order some PCI-E bridges 2 check, whether more than 4 GPUs (comp. Z170) are possible. ... not a cheap solution, if it really is one (2 be proofed). :D PanneKopp Title: Re: got an i7-7700 and a Z270 board - will let you know, whether itīs good 4 mining Post by: ps_jb on December 26, 2016, 07:35:44 PM Hi Folks, I got an i7-7700 and a Z270 board - will let you know, wether itīs good 4 mining.

But based on your CPU and MB, guess it's all-around PC and you will mine during night or when not using it. In that case since you plan on having multiple GPUs you should disable all but one when not mining because of power draw.

Why would it be really bad, that processor also has resale value, in one year if he would decide to invest more into mining, he could just sell it.

so maybe it will support at least 6 gpus (who cares about roi? :) ) Title: Re: got an i7-7700 and a Z270 board - will let you know, whether itīs good 4 mining Post by: philipma1957 on January 08, 2017, 03:53:46 PM I am running a i5 7500 in a z270
I upgraded windows 10 pro to windows enterprise which may be needed to do 5 or more gpus. At the moment I am only running 2 gpus in the build. I did a review on newegg on the build and over the next week to 2 weeks I will get this build up to 5 cards if possible. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813128966&cm_re=aorus_motherboard-_-13-128-966-_-Product Title: Re: got an i7-7700 and a Z270 board - will let you know, whether itīs good 4 mining Post by: miropp on January 08, 2017, 04:15:05 PM I upgraded windows 10 pro to windows enterprise which may be needed to do 5 or more gpus.

I got 4 going fine on my Aorus https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813128966 there is a review.. under philip a. I have 3 in slots and 1 in a riser. I will test the fifth today or tomorrow. edit 5 working cards. mixed no less! https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1584973.msg17568316#msg17568316 from post above I am running windows 10 Enterprise https://i.imgur.com/L4xlBeN.jpg Title: Re: got an i7-7700 and a Z270 board - will let you know, whether itīs good 4 mining Post by: Metroid on January 20, 2017, 09:15:31 PM Thank you, lets hope 6 will work on it, planning to add a 6th card?

No Many reasons why. The simple reason is I prefer slot mining over riser mining. My five card build uses 575 watts and is really compact. I can use a evga 750 watt p2 psu. Simply no need to run six cards. I posted more photos on the other thread.

The 6th card would prove that the Z270 can run it, the Z270 has few extra lanes more than Z170, the Z170 cant run 6 or more gpu's.
