I think this ethOS sounds like -the- solution for my new Ethereum mining project.
Just bought 4 new Radeon R9-390X2 and thought I would need at least 16GB+ ram and a massive MB with i7 CPU for 2 cards. (x2) Can ethOS do the job in this case? 2 cards on a older MB (K9N 2core) with just 2GB ram and ethOS? This would save a lot of money! And less frustration, took me a lot of time running first Rig and it doesn't seem to be easier with my Devil 13's so far.

There are several different types of Bitcoin clients. The most secure are full nodes like Bitcoin Core, which will follow the rules of the network no matter what miners do. Even if every miner decided to create 1000 bitcoins per block, full nodes would stick to the rules and reject those blocks.

I would not do 2GB ram only because of the DAG file, takes much longer to make. Do 4. The R9 390's are a solid choice (they do 31MH/s once overclocked and proper settings in the miner are applied). Although depending on price the 270X is also not bad as it does 15MH/s and use much less power, then again depends on price per gpu.

Can ethOS identify 6x 7990 GPUs that means 12 GPUs ? p.s I already bought ethOS to support them but i didn't have the time to install it

WTB working or unstable KNC TITAN cubes.

Should be no problem. ethOS runs just fine on a 5 year old sempron.

I am very interested but I have rigs with combinations of multiple 7990's, 280's and 7950's, always around 10 GPU's per rig. Will EthOS detect and use all of them?

Which OS are you on now? I have not seen more than 6 GPUs on linux.

Which graphics cards and how many of them do I need to mine a good amount of Ethereum every day? I'm interested on mining Ethereum.

Afaik it works just fine on Ethminer, so it really should be. Its a very nice efficient little card, albeit not cost effective. It's honestly not a card we see often, however. You could drop by IRC and ask around.

It does, my windows setup does as well. Is a driver thing, not an OS thing. Anyway, it should work without a monitor attached.

I was waiting for someone to make a mining hardware comparison.
