I'd like to build a Deep Learning Rig using a Ryzen X1800 and 4 GPU cards (either Nvidia 1080ti or AMD RX580)

I'd like to build a Deep Learning Rig using a Ryzen X1800 and 4 GPU cards (either Nvidia 1080ti or AMD RX580).

My question is, how do I get four cards working on an AMD Ryzen board that may have enough PCIE slots but not enough room, i.e. using risers?
Thanks in advance.

Thanks user!

Enthusiast products and professional products are not the same. The Ryzen 7 1800x does not have enough PCIe lanes for that many GPUs.
I would consider looking at what tools you're going to be using, and what hardware is recommended.
Or just use Jewgle's Cloud TPUs ;-)

Unironically wait for Threadripper.

This. Also Vega.

Depending on what framework you know, go with 1080ti or a Vega card.

Sli or CF aren't that great on most am4 motherboards

don't buy ryzen and just buy 2x xeons or 4x xeons for cheap af, $50-100 each, so you can get more pcie lanes

youre crazy, dont do it

What are you building? A gf AI?
