Title: Is gaming motherboard ROG STRIX Z370-H GAMING ok for 6 x GPU mining? Post by: kasparpalgi on December 18, 2017, 07:25:22 PM Hey, I've got this motherboard and was wondering if it's fine for 6 x 1070ti GPU mining rig? There's only 3 slots that I can use with risers to bring GPUs up like everybody does and then 3 cards should be put on the motherboard? Just wondering if it's fine or I should buy motherboard like everybody else uses.

They're a strait upgrade from H81 etc pro btc boards. You shouldnt plug gpus directly into the motherboard, go 100% usb risers.

Just wondering if it's fine or I should buy motherboard like everybody else uses. First of all, a graphics card in the second pci-e x16 slot will block one of the pci-e. Another issue is that this card won't have enough air supply if you have another card in the third pci-e x16. So I wouldn't try leaving more than two gpus in the motherboard (using the top and the bottom pci-e x16 only), the rest - with risers.https://www.asus.com/Motherboards/ROG-STRIX-Z370-H-GAMING/ It's got: 2 x PCIe 3.0 x 16 SafeSlots (Support x16, x8/x8) 1 x PCIe 3.0 x 16(at x2 mode) 3 x PCIe 3.0 x 1 Title: Re: Is gaming motherboard ROG STRIX Z370-H GAMING ok for 6 x GPU mining?

And again you can get cheaper motherboard, I would suggest you to get Gigabyte H110 Mining or Z270 K3 Gaming |
