I am planning on building a mining rig with more than 8 gpus. I've bought 1 to 4 pci express splitters but I had no luck getting the motherboards to boot with more gpus than the number of its actual physical pcie ports. (tried z87, h97, h81, b150). The person who sold these to me said he heard ASROCK X99 EXTREME supports up to 32 GPUS. Now I've seen somewhere on the ethereum dual miner thread that somebody managed to use around 18?, i think, amd cards on linux, but I cannot find that post anymore. Anyone have any info on this? Will a motherboard with X79 chipset be just as good, as they have the same number of lanes? Or it depends more on the bios ?They are rather expensive and I want to hear some opinions before I throw my money.
Most miner software doesn't support more than 8 cards. (hardcoded in the client). I ccminer sp-mod I support 32 cards, but NVIDIA only. Looks like a great plan, but I'm wondering if you will manage to get your ROI back. Do you have a certain strategy for that? WIll you mine different coins from time to time like XMR or ETH?

I will release new version in 1-2 days. Not all cards will get speedup, but at least Hawaii and Polaris will.
Claymore say something  ?

What hashrate can you get from R9 290? What wattage?
Have the option to get used one for cheap so need to calculate approx roi. Thx
You can get about 300 for about 280-300W.

Guys, I have a system with 5 GPUs, 3 R9 290 and 2 RX 480, all using usb risers with sata/molex adapter. He's been standing about 3 months 24/7. Today I smelled something burnt and found what is in the picture. Just the two that energized the RX 480. Do the RX 480 continue to extract more than pci_ex can support? Is there something wrong with my PSU? My RIG: Asrosk H81 Pro BTC Intel Celeron G1820 8GB RAM 3 R9 290 + 2 RX 480(all stock) USB risers Cougar GX 800 + Corsair CX 750 https://postimg.org/image/an2rbk0wv/

Should be fixed with the latest driver. Im using the same molex/sata connector but no burnout like that.
