Are those all video cards????

They're coin mining riser cards.

Yes. Video cards come with tons of USB ports nowadays for all the gaming peripherals.

Shut up. You're giving them ideas.

who allowed this

...

Name one legitimate use case for that.
A hundred usb dildos in your ass don't count.

But can you plug USB miners into those ports?

Could the board even support that many USB 3.1's transferring data at full capacity?

kek

Pretty sure that only comes into play when you're talking about on-board USB, not add-in boards that go right into the PCIe slots.

Those are not USB 3.1.

They're just USB ports where you can connect a PCIe x1 adapter.

They're blue which suggests they support USB 3.0 spec.

I doubt the PCIe links have enough bandwidth for all of those though.

5gbps per port, 13 ports per card, 8 cards, ~100 USB ports. That's 500gbps at max throughput.

And that's just not happening over PCIe, with PCIe 3.0 each PCIe lane can transfer 985MB/s (bidirectionally). The B250 chipset supports 12 PCIe 3.0 lanes the CPU will give you another 16 PCIe lanes. that's 28 total lanes.

985 MB/s is 7880 Mbps
28 * 7880 is 220640 Mbps
or 220.64 Gbps total PCIe bandwidth.


tldr, you'd get at MOST ~220Gbps (about half the total maximum throughput for that many USB 3.0 ports)

They're blue but they don't support anything except PCI Express.
USB 3.0 ports are used because the PCIe needs the extra pins.

If there's no USB controller, then the blue suggests that they used blue plastic.

Considering you can't see the front of the cards, you have no idea if they've got a USB controller or not.

lel

Sigh... no coiner fags don't understand there is a chip on that board like a PCI lane switcher, it allows many devices to use one pic slot.


There are many pic express to 3 pic express cards on eBay, this is just that idea on crack.

granted ir probably won't work unless you do have a dedicated mining motherboard.

>unless you do have a dedicated mining motherboard.
That's basically what this is.
>BTC PRO

you know that a single usb port can handle 128 devices right? usb miners are usually hocked up to a raspberry pi and a fucktonn of usb splitters
its literally just a matter of powering em

pls link me one of those cards , im intrigued and wanna so some shenanigans w/ em

Why the fuck are usb miners still a thing? Aren't massive ASIC racks in chinese farms making anything else unviable?

just search "pcie multiplexer/multiplier"

That's just for sha256, scrypt and X11.

Wut

;)

they where never viable , its just to milk mining noobs who think they can run a mini farm and make money off it

That's the ASIC way.
This is for the GPU way.
One byproduct of GPU mining is gaymer salt, which is highly valuable in some circles.

>A hundred usb dildos in your ass don't count.
There are 101 usb ports there, actually..

they're not for USB miners
you can run PCI-e over USB, so miners get a bunch of PCI slots that they plug into these cards. It's good because you can plug many GPUs into limited slots, and you can spread them out to dissipate heat much easier.

>8 identical cards
>somehow an odd number of USB ports

You may want to recheck your math, professor.

u forgot the usb pins on the board that can technically count as one

bich

i know , i made 1k off my R9 290 by mining for 2 months and then selling it for 300$ :^)

What happens if I plug some USB Asic mining cards to each usb ports and start mining ?

>over USB cables
ftfy

You don't, because they're only USB ports at the physical layer, and that just for the cheap commodity connectors and cables. Above that, each port is actually a x1 PCIe lane.

can't mine eth with asics

What graphics driver in gods name would support 104 GPU's on a single host???

there is no God Morty.

amd drivers
if you put dummy plugs into every third card and do a basic driver install via device manager (using the official installer just to unpack the driver for you and then using dm to install the drivers manually , you only need it to do once as windows sees the other cards to be the same/supported device id and installs it automatically)

t. i ran 12 radeon cards of mixed model and make in a trashminer

What kind of a fucked up design is that?

External hard drive raid array

Regardless of bandwidth, the problem is that I'm fairly certain the board doesn't have enough PCI root hubs.

AMD driver on Windows only supports 8.

>drawing up to 600-1000 watts through the pci lanes
Sounds like a shit idea to me.

13 usb ports per card * 8 cards + motherboard probably has 4 -6 ports =201¿¡?!

...

Using USB connectors for PCI-e signalling is bound to reduce the bandwidth of that signal. It's not made for it at all.

>PCI root hubs
What do root hubs have to do with PCIe over USB cabling?

>made for it
>t.consumer cuck
The signalling standards and bandwidth requirements are quite similar. Also, it's not as if you need a whole lot of bandwidth for mining.

Usb ports for asics probably

No its for PCIe riser cards which more often than not repurposes USB 3 ports/cables because there cheap, available, somewhat compact and slimline and do a decent enough job at transmission of PCIe

I remembered that from 10 years ago and that was actually done so he could avenge himself from his prior failure

xe.bz/aho/17/ first failed attempt to cook an egg using a USB cup warmer with a single USB port

xe.bz/aho/24/ the second attempt using all 30 of them

Ultimate performance with ready boost raid

I think you replied to the wrong person, but:
The OS won't see them as separate PCI devices.

It can work for USB devices, but not PCI ones like those x1 to x16 risers that use a USB cable but aren't true USB.

There are PCIe switch/multiplier chips that do allow you to use multiple devices on a 1x slot and have them recognized independent GPUs. Problem is that some motherboards/BIOSs/Drivers have issues with stupid amounts of devices outside of what is normal.
104 GPUs on a single motherboard is possible is mainly software limits that will hold you back

What the fuck motherboard model is that? If you look closely, the first row of PCI-e connectors has 3 connectors while every other picture on google images returns with either 2 or 1 connector on the first row. Please explain.... what the fuck.

Indeed, I did reply to the wrong person.
I thought those were plain old PCIe lanes over USB cabling wired to a plain old PCIe switch, where endpoint devices would enumerate as functions with address allocations just like any other, but I've never used one so I don't speak from experience.

New version of the same model motherboard I can only guess with MOAR pcie slots.

Yes that's basically how these risers work.

It's not real USB. You can't plug a USB device in for it to be recognized. It's PCI over the cable.
You generally can't just split an x16 lane into 16 x1 because the chipset and/or UEFI doesn't support that.

I'm guessing these are actual USB hubs to plug USB devices in. Not GPU mining.

wat.png?
they support 7/8/8.1/10

It only supports 8 GPUs on PC Windows, is clearly what I was saying.
On Linux or Windows Server their driver supports more.

hey mining pc running windows 7 , you shud not work , sieze to work IMMEDIATELY or i will have to tell this user that he is full of shit

Get 100 1tb hdds and usb 3.0 adapters. Run all in raid 0. Fast, tons of storage, cheaper than comparable ssd storage

>Exposed VRMs

Is that a molex in the motherboard?
Why?

>It's not real USB. You can't plug a USB device in for it to be recognized. It's PCI over the cable.
No, it's PCI-Express, as I've been saying. BIG difference.
>You generally can't just split an x16 lane into 16 x1 because the chipset and/or UEFI doesn't support that.
That's not what they do. Pic related.

Copper has a non-zero resistance.

>all these new fags who don't know about pci-e risers

fuck me

cool, now plug a 64GB thumbdrive into each one, and combine them to make a single drive. 6TB? did i calculate that right?

What? What is this?

I can't say for sure, but probably just power distribution.
If you wanted real USB, you might have to settle for just 49 ports.

They're doing God's work and they don't even know it.

Board, not pod

I don't think it's for charging, I think it's for duplicating USB thumb drives.

It's board

So much pci for 2 ram slots

I think they're processors

104 Cards off one host board would be pretty impressive

I think we also may have solved the data center console server problem too.

so the idea is to throw a bunch of asic miners in there?
Can it even mine enough bitcoins to cover the cost of the computer?

Why? and How?

it's for cryptoniggers
