Hi all!
I have the rig finally up and running!! Thanks for everyone's input and help.
I ended up disconnecting everything and clearing the CMOS again.
Put everything back together and started right up.
Once again. Thank you to all who provided tips and guidance.
Best Regards and Happy Mining sjp04001
Good to know you have your problem solved. I'm quite curious to know more about your motherboard especially with more than 8 same type GPUs. Do you plan to add more cards later?

Just PM on airdrop. Hope I'm still not too late

I still confuse after reading the OP. So, this is not a POW coin, but is it POS?

NVIDIA GTX 1050 Ti
Most profitable algorithms past 30 days NeoScrypt: 1.3% DaggerHashimoto: 81.3% CryptoNight: 4.2% Lbry: 0.5% Equihash: 10.9% X11Gost: 1.6% NiceHash.com
NVIDIA GTX 1050 Ti Approximate ROI ** 164 Days
It's more profitable than 1060/1070/1080/1080TI/RX570/580 at current price
1050ti is a good ROI on card cost, but the return is very low even plug full 6 card in one motherboard.

Usually mining calculator uses data from last few hours, so the accuracy should be good. You may subtract it with -1% or -2% to get a conservative value as coin difficulty increased.

I don't play much games recently, still using my 1050ti for gaming

No luck.
I unplugged all cards and booted up with just the on board vga
I used 1 card in the PCIe 16x port with a riser and with the actual card in the port.
Still nothing on the boot up.
I'm not sure by that statement if it did boot with just the integrated graphics or if it has not booted with either integrated or dedicated graphics? In either case, try to clear the CMOS (you can remove the battery for 30 seconds if that's easiest) and double check all your cables as well. I also suspect the bios setting if it is set to integrated GPU or PCI-e GPU, you better ensure it is well configure.

Cyrptonight is good on i7!!!
Is it worth the electricity? You are hardly earn after you pay the electricity bill with cpu mining. But you can mine potential coin and keep, and wait for the price rise in future. But then I might aswell buy it with the money I would have spend on the electricity. Haha, I agreed with your point But I think he meant you will earn a little after paying electricity.

I can get this one cheaper then fan cooled 1080TI, it's a good offer. I am just curious how are liquid cooled GPU-s for mining? I would say better but more costly? But in this case, this one will be cheaper for me.
Should i go for it? I also think this model is quite good, so should provide nice Hashrate
You're answering your own question.. if you're getting a cheap 1080 ti and it still has the warranty then get it... lol. The liquid cooler may run cooler but its not necessary, especially since most of us lower tdp anyways, but if you're getting it for cheaper.. then get it?? lol. I've never bought used cards, so I don't know the risk that brings. Yes, it is good to get 1080ti cheaper, but you must beware of the risk that if this card used properly during mining.

nah, chill fam.... But seriously, nope - Heat is the main killer of GPU's. Since your fans are running 24/7, you're at a higher risk of your fans burning out, and if that does happen you can replace them for very cheap. As long as it's kept cool it'll last, and by that time it'll be outdated and time to upgrade.
Yes, just ensure GPU keep cool all the time should last long.

Please do update us about the chinese add2psu performance, I'm curious to know how good reliable is it.

As I understand it, ripple isn't mined at all.
Litecoin has been ASIC-based miner dominated for almost 4 years now.
Don't know the other coins at all.
Yes, litecoin should not count because it is not gpu friendly long time ago..

With laptop I would not suggest to mine, it gots really hot and works more slowly (I'm using Macbook pro)
I mined 1 Karbowanec there, but it took me more than a week (I was running it only when worked not 24hours) I did it with learning purposes.
Then I tried GridCoin - from laptops (both Macbook and Lenovo) it is mining very very slow. No reason to do it. But from iMac I mined almost 1 GridCoin a day I think I'll make short video to show the difference
Not bad to mine 1 gridcoin per day, what is you iMac spec?

No, it's not. Ryzen is better in any category, especially efficiency and price. With Ryzen you can move monero and it will be very good at it Besides mining, does Ryzen play a good role in windows desktop especially programming? Would like to get one for my development machine and might use it to mine while idle.

DNR - Denarius - low diff goot amount of coins and undervauled atm but still with a good current price - on 6 x 1070's Too bad that i never heard of Denarius before... Just checked the OP, it is a new algorithm coin. I like to mine new algorithm coin, but I think I'm too late for this one now I'm the early bird miner for DNR, kept some coins in my wallet now, waiting for the price to rise

Apart from my rig, I use my GTX 1080ti MSI GAMING X mainly for mining (zec +EWBF) in my personal computer and I set the core OC with CURVE and got quite ok results:
~710 sols / 180-185W / 3,7 - 3,8 sol/W
Curve is set for 843 + 170 (slightly above 1800mhz) and GPU is very stable while it's just mining, what is most of the time actually, but when I want to browse some websites / watch a stream, the screen blinks once (driver stops) and mining stops as well.
I didn't OC the memory (just core +170 on curve) - because I've noticed, that the power was up and efficiency went down with memory OC.
That leads me to a questions for ppl that use their 1080ti for mining (mostly) and normal, daily use: what kind of Curve and OC settings do you use?
Maybe I'm doing something wrong? And 843 isnt enough power for 1080ti?
It's stable for mining but not for mining and web browsing. I also use similar settings for my 5x 1070 rig, but maybe with 1080ti it's totally a different story.
It is hard to tell the reason, as your browsing might be abit heavy especially playing online streaming. 1080ti with +170 core should be good. BTW, did you check the temperature which browsing?

Yes, there is such wallet - KARBO Karbowanec cryptocurrency You can mine it with CPU, I would suggest mining from pool, not solo mining Just in case you need more info I did video review of it https://steemit.com/dtube/@flodner/didvah55This CPU mining only coin looks good, I will try it out with my i7. BTW, and hashrate data on different CPU?

I'm still mining SIGT now, waiting price rise after halving soon...

I have even found it with different models of cards. I have 5 Asus dual 1060's. Three of them are the "OC" and two are the regular type. The regular ones dont like being clocked as high as the "OC" ones but only by a small margin. Still manage to squeeze 23.7Mh out of them. The "OC" ones i coild get 24.5Mh.
Of course OC model is better than regular one, as it is designed to OC. But your regular one not bad though with 23.7Mh/s.

anyone know what the the best coin for mining? i'm so confused for my choice It is nothing confusing, if your GPUs are AMD, go for ethereum, or nvidia go for zcash. I checked yesterday on whattomine, seems like signatum is the most profitable coin for 1080ti now. So, maybe you can also try out signatum. thanks, i just mining bitcoin but i got a little bit of BTC Do you mean to mine BTC by using your graphics card? You should not do that, graphics cards are mainly for alt coins, if you want to mine bitcoin, you should ge ASIC. i'm newbie for mining so i just mining BTC , i will buy a ASIC miner. someone recommendation me antminer D3? that is good? If you really want to mine BTC, and antminer D3 is within your budget, then it is much much better than you use your GPU to mine BTC.
