Hello hash cracking comrades ![Smile]( "Smile")
Looking to get a bit more info about a build I want to make. I want to make a hash cracking/ crypto mining rig.
The case will be open frame custom build and raisers will be used for maximum air flow etc. Thing is I want to put 10-12
ROG-STRIX-GTX1080TI-O11G-GAMING (https://www.asus.com/Graphics-Cards/ROG-...1G-GAMING/).
So my main concern is the motherboard! Would it be better to use 2-3 motherboards and connect them like a cluster or use something like this: http://www.biostar.com.tw/app/en/news/news.php?S_ID=307
That baby has 12 GPU PCIE slots but the thing is that they are x1 and this is the part I am not sure of. I know that for mining this is OK but what about hash cracking? Would those PCIE slots be enough to get the full potential of those 1080Tis for hash cracking or I need x4 etc
