Wouldn't an EPYC based motherboard (lots of PCIe x16 slots) generally be the right choice for testing multiple 4090's, rather than a mining rack?

- segmondy 3y agoA mining rack would mean the metal frame where the 4090's are mounted, not the motherboard. Since they pulled off this build, We will assume they are smart to use a server motherboard with enough PCIe slots and lanes.
- justinclift 3y agoAhhh. I was thinking they might also have been meaning one of the mining specific motherboards, which commonly use a bunch of PCIe x16 physical slots with only PCIe x1 electrical connections.
