1. USB hub

oh and of course - very powerful PSUs

these adapters are cost too much, but still it is possible to run 30 or even more video cards on your pc?

Success doesn't come to you…you go to it

This isn't going to work.  The USB 3.0 cable is just used to extend the PCIe connections, it's not using the USB protocol.

FAIL. like melmo said. moreover item 2 provides PCI slots. Good luck finding mineworthy cards using PCI.

That does not solve that the first part is only using the usb as a data transfer from an existing pci-e port not actually a usb>pcie adapter

I can only imagine the nightmare of trying to diagnose any problem with this many adapters/extenders/hubs.

Why don't you try this yourself before saying it works.

Ya my god that would be a nightmare to troubleshoot. If you had to pay a qualified tech to set that up it would probably be around half the costs of the video cards themselves -- and it might even end up proving impossible after having to pay the guy .
