My Slightly modded RX 480's do about 625 H/s each so..........

625 x 13 = 8125 H/s
625 x 14 = 8750 H/s

LOL

I just wonder....13 or 14 GTX 1080 Ti's :D


You have to give it to Asrock they sure are not afraid to push the envelope.

With that many GPUs some OSes crash due to too many display outputs. Also, it is a 100% mining rig at that point. I have been building the 8x PCIe x16 ones so I can use it for DL/ AI as well.

I really hope AMD starts cranking out the gpu's soon, the RX 580's and RX 570 's are super hard to get.

Yes you will have to disable video outputs on all cards with that many. I think windows has 24 video outputs total it can handle, some cards have 3,4,6 each, depends on the cards.

Dumb question, do you remember how to do that @William ? I remember when you ran into the issue. I forgot the fix.

Not a dumb question at all.

When I ran 8x of those AMD cards they kept telling me it would not work with windows. I ended up contacting a AMD engineer who gave me mGPU which does a registry tweak to disable all but one video source on those cards. I am not sure if it works with Nvidia tho.

I will send it over to you.
