I have 6 1660 super graphics cards. I am trying to hook them up onto an Aorus Z390 master and it has 6 pcie slots but i have only successfully hooked up 3 once i add the fourth it doesn't display. 

What are some possible solutions to this? 

Probably just need a different motherboard built for the task?

Unless it still shows up in your OS, then it just might be some display output limit

I edit my posts a lot, Twitter is @LordStreetguru just don't ask PC questions there mostly...

What is your budget/country for your new PC?

 

what monitor resolution/refresh rate?

 

What games or other software do you need to run?

That board can't bifurcate the PCIe slots that many times. 4 is the max you'll get.

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

 

Primary PC:

i7 8086k - EVGA Z370 Classified K - G.Skill Trident Z RGB - WD SN750 - Jedi Order Titan Xp - Hyper 212 Black (with RGB Riing flair) - EVGA G3 650W - dual booting Windows 11 and Fedora Linux - Black and green theme, Razer brainwashed me.

Draws 400 watts under max load, for reference.

 

PSU tier list

How many watts do I need?

PSU misconceptions, protections explained, group reg is bad

I don't really have a budget. I live in the USA and will pretty much take into consideration any recommendations. 

The software im trying to run is phoenix miner. So i just let it mine one i get it running. 

My monitor is Acer Nitro XV272U and im running it in 144hz. Im viewing the mining rig on VNC viewer.

A mining motherboard...but mining in general likely isn't worth it.

GPU mining is a money sink, I don't recommend it at all.

Well i also have the Asus H370 mining board(20 GPU motherboard ) but that came out in 2018 and wasn't necessarily compatible or able to run with the GPU

i tried everything to try to get it to work but it would lag once i had more than 3 GPUs on that board so i got this new one and it seems like i may have to get another one that will work.

Oh okay understandable. This is more just a hobby for the quarantine. I was just wondering how could i make it possible and what products i should be looking at. 

Folding@home with 4 GPUs might prove fun
