i can suggest a mb like these Onda B250 D8P or B250 BTC Mining Motherboard
I think that Onda has 8 size x16 slots that run at speed x1. B250 chipset supports max 12 PCI Express lanes, so simultaneous operation of eight GPU's at x16 speed is not possible at all. Oh ok, sorry i din't know , i tought they were running at x16 speed

this is not working since it's headless. Always throws a lot of errors and nothing happens . I've read all night all across the web about setting this up and nothing worked ! ...

I think this is possible only if all GPU's are installed into x16 slots, but I have not heard about the existence of motherboards with 6x PCIE x16 slots. The best result I saw using I7-8700K and 1x1060 was 500KH @PCIEx16, 420KH @PCIEx4 and 230KH @PCIEx1.

Sorry, probably I'm not quite correctly state my opinion: To obtain the maximum hashrate all GPU's must be installed in the PCIE x16 slots that run at the maximum possible speed (ideally x16). But most of the motherboards I know allow x16 speed only in one slot, if you install GPU's into the remaining PCIE slots,then their speed is usually less. From the specification of this particular EPOX motherboard: Graphics slot 8 x PCI-E 16x (1PCI-E3.0x16 + 7 PCI-E3.0x1).

Once the miner is optimised in the next few months it will be able to run at full speed on the GPU with low cpu load. It's just the way the miner is currently written thats making it cpu / pci-e bus bound. If you have the hardware and you don't mind swapping the cpu on then it makes sense to do a swap and mine at the best hash rate. It's a combination of Cpu speed(DDR3 ram cpus take a big hit) 80% x pci-e width 15% x 5%GPU. So with 2x GTX 1060 on a i7 you get more hash than 4x1060's on a i5 2500s . ~700h/s More than 3 cards and the performance gains are reduces too.. I'm getting about 8 btm a day on i5 2500s with 1060 x 4. More profitable than most on crypto coinz. So I have the option of getting a i72600 (max supported by Mining rig) or using two cards on 16x and 8x mode on a i7 3770. To get 700h/s. What's the best watt/hash? As I doubt my i7 is very efficient Cheers

All 4x 1060s on risers.
When I run the miner with -E 1,2,3 so it only runs on one card I get 250hs on card 0... however I get 140hs when I run on Gpu 4 . Which is bizzar .
When running 1 x 1060 card on i7 in x16 slot I got 350hs.

I tried it on HiveOS and worked like charms. It was very easy but the only issue I have is that I have the cheapest processor and only getting about 580Hs average at uupool.cn for 9-1050 2GB cards. I will try it again later on a system with a more powerful processor. Thanks. Can't wait for improvement on this miner.
-Type miner when running and you can see how the cards are running.

But what pool do you use?
antpool doesn't give BTM as choice in sub-account management and uupool is not in english (and at sign up, my phone number doesn't work).

Just reading through.
I'am running on my home PC a i7-8700K with 2x 1080ti on PCI 16 slots and 64GB RAM, but i'am on windows 10, can i try testing something that could help?
I doubt, as it was mentioned several times it's not for windwos, but maybe there is a way....

Your fastest way is bootable Ubuntu USB memory stick...

Download Hiveos and write to a pendrive using etcher, afer boot from the pendrive

I get 1kh/s with 1070 ti + 1080 both on 16x slots with i7 8700 . Problem is that when the miner is running i get one of my cards to boost up fan speed at 100% and noise is just ridiculus also think that fans will just blow out any moment,2nd card (the 1080 is running fine with default auto fan speed , dont know why the first card gets always 100% speed). I tried everything to set up fan speed accordingly but problem is I am trying to do it via SSH and I cannot do that. I can set only power limit / clocks . Can anyone help with this situation ? How do you set fan speed through SSH ?
http:// When I get home I will upload a script to control each GPU fan speed/overclock for Ubuntu. This is what your looking for right? https://photos.google.com/photo/AF1QipM3Yc4iBlWaSBXXJW-RrqTmde4An4KGTBQNyTNzhttps://photos.google.com/photo/AF1QipPfwCsVilW9LcSG6meyGXfDgRmyH73T8QElGJGH# open terminal sudo nvidia-xconfig --enable-all-gpus sudo nvidia-xconfig --cool-bits=12 sudo systemctl restart lightdm.service reboot open NVIDIA X Server Settings and check Enable fan settings

Nvidia disables fan control by default. Once you run the script and reboot the CPU the check mark will appear and you can change the speeds as you wish.
# open terminal
sudo nvidia-xconfig --enable-all-gpus
sudo nvidia-xconfig --cool-bits=12
sudo systemctl restart lightdm.service
reboot
open NVIDIA X Server Settings and check Enable fan settings
