So I decided to push the six 1070's

Slot 1
msi 1070 itx -----------100 watts

slot 2
evga 1070 hybrid -----120 watts

slot 3
egva  1070 hybrid ----120,watts

slot 4
msi    1070 seahawk--120 watts

slot 5
 empty

slot 6
evga  1070 founders---111 watts

slot 7
empty

slot 8
evga 1070 founders---111 watts

cards ----------- 681 watts
rest of system-- 29  watts
total ------------710 watts 6 cards  2525 sols

I am using this psu corsair    rm1000x

may be the best priced one that can do 8 down clocked 1070s

logically you would set at

1- 90  msi itx

2-110 evga hybrid
3-110 evga hybrid
4-110 evga hybrid
5-110 msi seahawk
6-110 msi seahawk

7-  90  evga founders
8-  90  evga founders

this would be 820 for gpus and 30 for system total 850 watts  at about 3200 sols

I am placing the order for ten tonight.  I will send a board to you.

to all it is this board.
I will lay out for the 10 boards  and do  not expect any coin until they are in hand

It is a power stability issue.

see if you can read each cable with a meter.  my guess is the two jacks in have like 11.9 and 12.3  so the card is letting you know that.  just a guess.

avalon will release a

14th 1300 watt model

about 1400-1500 usd

Maybe on my birthday in late Jan

Am I the only one with info on this?

If true this would be a little better then the s-9

right now  my board  is rock solid running 6x 1070's  on an 850 watt psu.

smos under clocked power to 95 watts per card.

I got the msi itx  1070 today and pulled the 1080 ti out put in the msi 1070 itx.  this board looks good.  for six  with a 16gb stick of ram and the i5 6400t cpu.

waiting for more 1070's

 it is not going to run  8x 1080 ti's

I will try 7x 1070's with 1 x 1080ti

I can order 10 for :

1180 boards
  174 shipping
    68 paypal fee
     41 Alibaba ins fee

1463       so 147 a board to my house in New Jersey ,USA

so I mark it up to 155 plus shipping at cost to USA  say 175 a board.

Any one want it?  I need to get 10 .  No rush to pay

heat  resistance. 

you can use this

will not short
will not burn

Yes you can.

Move  the two pin out of the way and put in the six pin in the riser.

Yes I ordered a sample about thirty minutes ago. This board costs more 200 vs 178 for the sample.

good question don't know

I also realized I misunderstood second seller on alibaba.  so I may be able to get a sample of his board.

that is this one.

this board sample will be 200

153 board
 38   shipping
   9   paypal fee

200 net


this one won't short  god willing  it will allow for no 24 pin  and your own cpu.

you will need to wire your own   4 pin  for the cpu  a pico will do   but if you are handy  you can make  a cpu  cable from your server.

all my evga psus struggle with s-9's and with avalon 6's.

so I would set to -2

and really try to get the intake under 38


So set your  fan to 40%  not 10%

it will never drop under 40% so you are good with the 40% setting. Most likely it will ramp to 78% or so.

when you installed gpu number one  did you set it up and test mine to see what it did?

if not  you fucked up since you have no idea when  your shit numbers started?

and if they started on gpu number one   you should have asked then what was wrong.

So at this point I have no suggestions other then erase everything install just the first gpu and let us know what it mines.

BTW I am not sure if that is the better gpu model.

While I started this thread I have not purchased any amd cards in six months.

so  I am not the best person to ask.

I had 2 of them.

not sure I would want them in the riser-less build

they have only okay cooling

You know me  yes .


I now have

about 700 watts used  for the six cards  about 2600 sols

5x 1070
1x 1080 ti


should end up 910 watts for 8 cards about 3400 sols

7x 1070
1x 1080 ti

well my opinion for what is worth,  is linux/smos/nv0019  is the way to use--- i like smos for nvidia and I find no problems going all nvidia and smos I don't mind paying 2 bucks a month to run 8 cards on a board.  since I was doing 4 card boards  this 8 card board will save 24 dollars a year in smos fees





 the odnda 6 slot 1800 and

 the onda b250 8 slot + 4 boards   have a big issue

if you stick the molex in wrong it kills the board .--  since i murdered 1 six slot this way i absolutely don't like that feature.

next

I have a lot of cpus with good quality i5 6400t i5 6500t they work really well on this board my cost = 0
 I have at least 3 16gb sticks of sodimm ram
and 2 sticks of 8gb sodimm ram
and 4 or 5 quality usb stick

so the 8 slot board is attractive to me.

I can get the boards well under 180 usd if I buy 10 of them
also makes them attractive to me.

if you don't run the gear full out a quality 1200 watt atx  will do 8 1070's simply set to 110 watts for the 1070  and you use 880 of 1200 watts

-2 lowest hash rate with least power used.
-1 more hash rate with more power used
0  even more hash rate with more power used
+1 most hash rate with most power used


no one does +1  with good results

0  can be done in a cool room with  a very good psu

-1 is good if you are running hot
-2 is good with a shitty psu.

299 is rock solid deal for that cpu

it earns 70 cents to 80 cents a day.  about 550 hash rate.

figure 100 watts for the entire setup while mining xmr and no gpus.

about 50 watts for the system at idles no mining.

I suggest a watercooled cpu

this is over kill i have it

https://www.amazon.com/EVGA-Liquid-Cooler-Cooling-400-HY-CL24-V1/dp/B074WH52BW/ref=sr_1_3?

this is good I built 1 pc with it

https://www.amazon.com/EVGA-Liquid-Cooler-Cooling-400-HY-CL24-V1/dp/B01N9X3HY1/ref=sr_1_3?


that mobo looks good for four cards  good price.

are you using smos and running nvidia?

did you insert 3 sata and 3 molex ?

it is easy to put the molex in wrong if you did that means dead board.  this is the biggest flaw with the design

are you using a decent atx psu and no server psu.?

five gpus

4 watercooled

now running 4x 1070
and 1 1080 ti

about 580 watts  for 2200 sols

I have to stop I need more cards

this is my conclusion
