Title: New 8 RX580 GPU Build, Need advice. Thanks in advance.
Post by: igotfits on September 22, 2017, 01:31:58 AM
Hey everyone ive been mining for a few months, and my current system is an 8 GPU MSI gaming 1060 build.
Currently i am working on a new system, im new to AMD cards and need some advice on power.

Each card will have it's own dedicated pci-e 8pin power, nothing shared.
I have a problem with the power supplies and sata connections available, im running 2 750watt EVGA PSU.
Each PSU has 3 6pin pci-e connections and 1 6pin perif pci-e connection, i assume the perif connection is the same as any other 6pin pci-e connection on the PSU.

My current 1060 rig is running 1 PSU and each 6 pin pci-e connection is sharing 2 risers (sata) on one rail, and i there is no issue there.

Is anyone running 2 risers (sata) on 1 6pin pci-e rail for their 580s?
