3way SLI Folding Machine?

[Kenji the Uke]

Does Folding and Boinc use the GPU's correctly when going to 3/4way SLI? I was thinking about doing a computer like that, as a "lifetime donation" kinda thing 3: Build plan down below.

Change the board for something like a SOC Champion or X99 Deluxe, your life will suck without OC Socket.

Change the psu. Its not for 24/7 use.

3 or 4 sli wont use the cards fully id get two seperate machines with one 980ti each and youll get more performance

3: I could try that.. Though it will add more cost... But sure.

It could be if this deal I am working with the power company goes through 3:

Oh? Why not? I'll follow your advice either way, but just curious.

its not that great compared to the RMi series

[ThatOneRussian]

the parts inside arent that great quality

[Kenji the Uke]

I see 3: Darn, I really liked how they looked.. Oh well. So.. I'll split this case up then if it really would make more sense.. But that does blow my budget a bit out of the water x-x;

Also nearly missed it you need a different ssd. Its really slow compared to the hyperx savage or others

[Kenji the Uke]

Different? Alright, you'd recommend the Hyperx? And I am in the US.

3: I am not brand-clingie so I am willing to go to whatever is best.

[ThatOneRussian]

the ssd depends on the price

haha okay.  Also why do you need a 1 Tb ssd if youre only folding ?

[Kenji the Uke]

3: Well.. I mean with that power.. Who knows? Maybe once it retires from folding, it can be a gaming platform?

Are you planning to overclock the cpu?

[Kenji the Uke]

Very slightly. 3: Its an AIO, which could be upgraded to a custom one later, but i dont wanna stress it out too much before then.

folding at home doesn't require them to be sli'ed.

just plug them in without the sli bridge and it will use each one as a separate gpu... that way you will get 100 percent of every card
