Post by: big_daddy on April 28, 2017, 09:09:16 AM
Asus PRIME-H270-PLUS

6 X Gigabyte RX 470 G1 Gaming 4GB
PSU Enermax Platimax 1700W

I used 2 old big towers to build a custom open rig, see the pics :-)

Have some issues, only 3 to 4 cards are showing in windows 8, 8.1 & W10
Updated the motherboard BIOS to the last available
Checked the risers on my old rig, all working....

Today I will try with the W7 and share my results


Is there someone who is using the same motherboard?

Looks nice, but you definitely need to put together proper cooling. 6 cards, close to each other + 1700W PSU equals lots of heat.
Not sure if your motherboard supports 6 pci-E lanes working together, never worked with that mobo. Wish you luck running all six cards.
