Title: WTS 7x BIOSTAR RACING Z170GT7
Post by: reelen on March 02, 2017, 09:46:46 PM
Looking to sell these brand new BIOSTAR RACING Z170GT7.  They are not going to meet my needs so figured I would give the community a crack at them before I return them.

Asking $90.00 + shipping

If the whole lot is purchased at once, discount will be given and discussed in PM.

I accept escrow through OgNasty at buyers expense.  Please see my recent feedback as you can buy with confidence direct through me.

In case it wouldn't work for me either...

They won't support 7 cards with risers. If you are interested I'd reccomend building like Phillipma builds his rigs, 4 cards.

Thanks for your reply.

will they support 5 or 6 cards with risers?

have you tried them with less powerful cards? Something that will work for 750ti's might not work for r9 7990's.

there's 3 limitations I can think of:

cpu max pcie lanes
mobo bios max pcie/gpu's
data limitation on the mobo's physical lanes.

I'm torn between small gpu rig builds and building a wild m.2/thunderbolt setup.

I honestly haven't even taken them out of the box.  Got them on sale on Newegg (a little later when prices started to rise) and right after they shipped there was a thread that explained 7 cards would not work so I decided to not even bother.  We can reach out to a few on that thread and ask, but from my understanding these are best used with only 4 cards, but are rock solid apparently.

My business partner had already returned them or I would certainly consider it.
