Hp Z820 workstation
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Hello,

Theoretically, if hardware limitation put aside (obviously No space in HPZ820 chassis) can we populate 6 PCIe lanes with 06  GTX1660Super cards with mini risers? Just a thought to use this machine in ethereum mining.

 

My system:

HpZ820 dual E5-2687W processors, 64gig, 1125W power supply

sysboard 158b 1.01

well i have tried this on Hp Proliant ML350 gen 08.. All cards recognized, but power supply is not supporting my goal.. I shall try my luck with another PSU 1300W (along with its native 400W X 02= 800W). Will see the results then... As you can see in the pic, i tried with 750W but system gets crashed and reboot... proliant Experiment.jpg
