A motherboard that supports 8 gpu's?

https://britishminers.com/shop/mining-machines/gpu-miner/mining-machine-8-gpus-sapphire-nitro-radeon-rx-6900-xt-16-gb-gddr6-graphics-cards-all-components-in-rosewill-mining-case-768mh-s/?gclid=Cj0KCQjwmIuDBhDXARIsAFITC_7G-PA0gdTfa9E8w-GgrasNcMfDyq_5hh4sxJUZory7SnyvPlvm3EUaAr4EEALw_wcB this is the motherboard that supports 8 gpu's

Can you use the same 8 gpu's and use it as one pc and game on 32k?

This questions is not only about gaming on 32 k but if you can 8 gpu's in a pc and make it as a single pc

It's not like there'd be any driver support for it, anyway...

Thanks for reading all this by the way!

By the way, my desktop is a docked laptop. Get over it, No seriously, I have an exterrnal monitor, keyboard, mouse, headset, ethernet and cooling fans all connected. Using it feels no different to a desktop, it works for several hours if the power goes out, and disconnecting just a few cables gives me something I can take on the go. There's enough power for all games I play and it even copes with basic (and some not-so-basic) video editing. Give it a go - you might just love it.

No, you cannot run one game across 8 GPU's. Even when SLI was a thing, 4x SLI was the maximum for standard GPU's. 

 

Also the only way they are getting 8x GPU's in that rather low end motherboard is the use of USB>PCIe riser boards that are only suitable for mining, not gaming.  

 

Only two x16 slots.

The board used here provides way lower PCIe banwidth to the cards because mining doesnt care. Games do though, so this system (even if the CPU's good, and I'm 100% sure a Haswell CPU is not at this point) is an awful gaming PC.

 

If you're talking about ripping the cards out, then it's basically this

 

They dont have support for 32K displays though, so no on this regard. No games can run on multiple cards to generate a bigger image, that's professional work territory

You can.  

 

Not for gaming.

 

For machine learning or mining.

 

Or for no reason at all.

No.

 

  • SLI is pretty much dead at this point anyway.
  • There isn't, and never has been, driver support for 16 GPUs in one system
  • You couldn't get a 16K display, definitely not one of a sane size to use for gaming

You have to understand that SLI is dead. 4x SLI even more so. Profiles for any modern games just don't exist. The most graphical gaming performance you're going to get today will be 2x SLI 3090's and even then, its hardly better than a single 3090.

Mining. The site you linked is literally "britishminers.com". Are you not familiar with cryptocurrencies? 

 

Making use of 8 quadro's would require specialized software designed to do so. Just adding GPU's doesn't just automatically make everything faster.

Mining. x16 bandwidth does not matter when mining, so you can use as many GPUs as you have x1 slots.

Aerocool DS are the best fans you've never tried.

No.

 

As before, there is no driver support, SLI is dead, and anyway, you can't get a monitor that supports that resolution.

No because they don't support combined resolution nor SLI/CF to that degree. 

 

Let's say you can multiply 3 digit numbers quickly. Does having 8 of you means you can handle 24 digit multiplications just as quickly? Sure it will be faster than doing it alone, but not 8x faster.

bruh you can add 16 8k monitors and use it as one pc, did you watch linus 16 k video?He used 16 4k gpu's and 4 4k gpu's?

I want to do the same thing but with 8 4k quadro's and 16 8k monitor's, is it possible?

I'm going to try to clarify what others have already said on this post.

 

Gaming doesn't support SLI(Multi GPU) anymore. You can't even use TWO graphics cards for new games. Gaming is just not going to happen with more than one card anymore. 

 

Quadros are workstation cards for rendering, 3D modeling, machine learning, etc. Not for gaming. And to state it again, games don't support Multi GPU at all anymore.

 

The big thing these boards that support more than two cards are used for is mining. That's the number one thing you'd have 8 cards for. The only things these SLI/ Multi GPU systems are used for nowadays are for what @Tristerinlisted.

 

- Machine Learning

- Mining

- Rendering

- 3D Modeling

 

Just to name a few, unfortunately gaming just wasn't a big selling point for SLI, Nvidia is all but removing it entirely from their gaming lineup. The only 30 Series card to have an SLI/NVLink bridge is the 3090 and that's not on their for gaming, it's the Titan of the 30 series lineup so it's designed to be used for workstation tasks as well.

Because his job is to make crazy video's that get views so he can make money, not to build practical computers that actually work outside of the short amount that you see in the video.

Because Nvidia pretty much killed all but two way SLI. In order for a game to support more than 2 GPUs the game devs have to add in support on their end. Seeing how that ain’t going to happen your stuck at 2 GPUs for the most part. 

I just want to sit back and watch the world burn.
