Title: Re: Is it possible to connect many PCI-E 1X in one PCI-E 16X Post by: oliverm91 on December 26, 2017, 05:45:36 PM So I should find a motherboard with many PCI-E 1X and buy many risers to build a cost efficient mining rig?

But instead EVERYONE buys mobos with as many pcie slots as possible or use products that expand existing slots with other pcie hubs.

Have you ever BUILT a computer (from parts) before? If not, this is probably not a project you should undertake.

Title: Re: Is it possible to connect many PCI-E 1X in one PCI-E 16X Post by: dragonmike on December 26, 2017, 09:34:27 PM Never seen those 1-to-4 adapters before... Are they really working? How is the hashrate? Does Windows recognise all cards hooked up via this thing automagically? I have my doubts...

There's an 8-way that plugs into your full-length x16 slot, too. https://www.amazon.com/Motherboard-Express-Graphics-Adapter-Machine/dp/B07571T721 Title: Re: Is it possible to connect many PCI-E 1X in one PCI-E 16X Post by: splat1 on December 26, 2017, 10:21:15 PM Never seen those 1-to-4 adapters before...

It looks promising due to the fact they are using a PLX chip. |
