Title: Question regarding ETH rig motherboard Post by: se7snator on April 13, 2017, 01:16:18 AM Hi there buddies! :) :)
I'm still a noob in this matter, so please bear with me. :( I plan to setup my ETH rig with 3 x RX 480 - 4GB .. But the ASROCK H61 BTC is not available in my country, neither any similar motherboard.. And my only option widely available is Gigabyte GA-P81-D3 Socket 1150, It has 1 x PCI Express x16 & 1 x PCI Express x1 == 3 Slots total (Which I only need). I've done some researches. ppl saying that it doesn't support crossfire. :( .. So it will not boot up all the three GPUs? or I'm understanding this in a wrong way. Thanks, and again. Please excuse my ignorance :) Title: Re: Question regarding ETH rig motherboard Post by: adaseb on April 13, 2017, 01:26:32 AM Yes it will work with 3 GPUs, just get some USB risers.
