Hi,
I have 1050W thermaltake platinum power source for my 6 gpu (rx470) rig.
http://www.tweaktown.com/reviews/6922/thermaltake-toughpower-grand-1050w-80-plus-platinum-psu-review/index.htmlIt a single rail max +12V 1050. So nothing to setup cable wise.
Mother board is asrock btc h81 pro btc r2.0.
This power supply has 4 pcie cables each having two 6+2 connectors. I would like to connect all my 6 gpus.
Cables are long enough to plug all of them however this means 4 of gpus will share the same cable.
Of course i am using powered risers (ver 6)
Issue here is psu shuts itself after about 8mins. Rig consumes 800watts from the wall .
It works great for days with only 4 gpus connected. Each having their own pci power cable.
I have ruled out bad motherboard since i have other asrock h81 boards to try on.
Do i really need separate pci power cables for each of my cards?
Do these cable have max power they can deliver?
I really need an experts opinion on this.
Thank you very much.
