Title: Biostar TB250-BTC M2 to PCIE, 4in1 PCIE Riser..?
Post by: MrTDHP on January 15, 2018, 09:34:38 PM
Hello all,

I've been using motherboard Biostar TB250-BTC Ver 6.0 (the one with 6 PCIE slots) with 4x1080Ti, 1x1070, 1x1060.
I just ordered more GPUs (1080s and 1080Tis) and wondering if these methods would work.

1. M2 to PCIE (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B078SRVJ2X/ref=ox_sc_act_title_2?smid=AH2IFP2B2EGWZ&psc=1)
2. 4in1 PCIE (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B077JNRFN2/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?smid=AH2IFP2B2EGWZ&psc=1)

If both methods work this means I can have 10 GPUs (maybe even more if I use all the 4in1 PCIE in more PCIE ports?).
Have anyone tested if any of these works with this particular motherboard? I have read horror stories like fried motherboards and such because of using these, especially the #2.
I really appreciate if anyone can share their experience or even have the link to the item that you've been using.
I'm using Pentium G4560 and 8GB RAM, if that matters.

Thanks!
