Hi,
I've tried searching for an answer and can't find anything. I'm using the B250 mining expert and was wondering what the best way is to power 7 GPU's in the first (A) section of the motherboard? I'm not sure what the safest route is? Should I use a good 1200 to 1600 watt PSU and use splitters for all the PCIe connectors or could I somehow use 2 PSU to have enough connectors? I've read that SATA is not safe for the risers and I should use PCIe connectors for them. However, any good rated PSU won't have enough to cover it all. Using a bunch of splitters seems dangerous to me, and I'm just wondering if there is a safer way of going about this.
