Legend you just saved me near $600 on setting up a whole new rig.... Used the exact parts and miner i was using and i got the answer i needed. Thanks much mate.
I was just about to buy some of these but i was not sure they would work, i found this video very helpful and i have decided i will be buying them, thank you for the video dude :) keep it up.
I was actually surprised by how flawlessly it worked! In tomorrow’s video I try adding one of these on a full ASRock motherboard to try to make a 16 GPU rig... not gonna spoil how that went though 😅
@@SebsFinTechChannel legit I have been looking at them like hmmm I wonder. I got a few different kinds but had no time!! Just like the m.2 usb connection I’ve had for MONTHS LOL
Nice video man. I’ve got some generic ITX motherboards that have only one or two pcie slots, usually an x16 and an x1. Given that a splitter with four pcie risers is about the same price as 6 pcie risers, it makes using motherboards for a small four of five GPU rig viable
@@wanderwallz156 yep. I use HiveOS and it worked “first try” (Lego Batman). I used in on an old motherboard that uses an AMD FX CPU. Two RX580’s in the x16 slots on the board and four RX580’s on risers attached to the splitter (just like the Popular Front of Judea!)
Great idea to test the splitter, however I doubt anyone would need to use it on a Mb that can support 13 gpus anyway. What would be really useful is to know if you can use it on a Mb with 3 pci slots and get 12 gpus mining on it for a day or so and check the accepted share % at the pool, that’d be awesome!
i just learned ... some motherboards, have a weird limitation, it would only run with up to 4 cards no matter what. board used was asus b360. it would not boot with 2nd 4-1 splitter and a card attached. would boot with 4-1 spillter with 4 cards, and a splitter in second pcie1 slot (with no cards attached).
you have to connect them to separate pcie controllers, means find PCIE slots on separate chipset, than there is no lags in the system, I am using those devices from 2017 and only problem is that metal cooler going out of the card after 2 years, thermal past with glue and all is working nice, sometimes if rig have not enough air flow around those cards they are going too hot and starting throttling
Old post, but in case it helps anyone you can plug these into any pcix slot. It looks "weird" if you plug it into the large 16x slot, but it will work just fine. The card dosen't use all the communication lanes, so it dosen't need to be as big. Hope that helps.
I know this video is a little bit old but I managed to build a 10 RTX 3060 ti LHR rig with two of this at full capacity. MOBO: ROG STRIX B450-F GAMING II CPU: Athlon 3000g RAM: hyperx 4gb 2666 mhz People told me that this couldn't be done with an Athlon 3000g as it only supports 6 pcie lanes, but I had no trouble in the process. I don't remember exactly what BIOS settings I changed, but I tried to disable everything like SATA ports, HD audio, etc and enabled 4g decoding.
I'm pretty sure this works depending on motherboard capability... on my boards i never managed to have more than 2 cards working through this multiplier.
Did this actually allow you to add MORE gpu's in total to your rig than you had before? In my experience once your pcie lanes are tapped out you can't add more anyways regardless if you use a splitter or not.
I use two of them in my set up bc I don’t have enough pci slots. Unless they are kept cool they tend to crash every 4 hours however we go a 70 f night last night and had no issues tell it warmed up later around 12 pm est today. I’m going to add a case fan in front of them to help them cool down when it’s so freaking hot
TBH i am not really interested in mining or GPUs, i think one GPU is fine. But i'm envisioning a dockable computer enclosure consisting of two parts, the top would be the actual PC with a GPU, and the bottom could be... just an enclosure full of stuff. Being able to throw one PCIe connection over on an extender between the two, and then have a splitter in the bottom, driving all sort of... things, maybe extra mass storage, maybe soundcards, maybe capture cards, maybe PCIe to PCI bridge, these sorts of things, things that are kind of "optional" making the bottom enclosure a "dock" and the top one a "LAN box". I don't feel i really need this but it might just be something i would like to build for the heck of it.
Hi Sebs, I am using this PCIE splitter card in my laptop's M.2 interface which is PCIE X16 with a M.2 to PCIE adapter, it works good, but now I am not satisfied with four GPU cards, I would like to know could the second PCIe splitter card plug in previous one? Just like a tree structure, 1-to-4, then 4-to-16, then 16-to-64, of course not so many actually. I don't know if you have done this experiment, if you have a try, I hope to see in your reply.
I'm having an issue with one of these x1 to 4usb splitters, it will recognize 1 card but anything after that I get nothing inn device manager. The fans do spin though on the card it is not recognizing. Any suggestions?
Where did you buy those white usb cables? Mine is too short usb and when replace it by usb 3.0 or 2.0 then not recognized. Would you mind to share link where can I buy those long usb cables?
would this work for connecting multiple different kinds of cards? I need to connect to a bunch of legacy devices, so need things like serial/parallel, and 1394. could I run all of them off one of these splitters?
can you se completely different video cards? would thy work together one video card or do you need to use the same exact cards for them to work as one video card?
virtual memory should be increased if you havent already, make sure psu can handle it, could be faulty risers, or other things not really sure. i fixed it for me last time by enabling 4g decoding but it seems like you have that on already
Also, go in your BIOS, disable everything you don't need, serial port, etc. I ran into the same issue when I rebuilt a rig and put it all back together in different slots. Add a card, let windows find it, restart, verify its still there, shut down, add card 2, turn on, let windows find it, restart, verify, repeat until you hit your max. It's tedious but will save you hours of trouble shooting. I have 3 of the same boards with 11 cards each. 2 of the 4-to-1 adapters per board reviewed here and they work! This is a great video by the way!
Enter BIOS->Settings->Advanced->Windows OS Configuration to set Windows 10 WHQL Support to UEFI, enter Advanced->PCIe/PCI Subsystem Settings to set Above 4G memory/Crypto Currency mining to enabled, press F10 to save and reset.
Thanks for yourvideos, Let me ask you something, I am trying to connect 6 GPUs in two different motherboards, but in both it only recognizes 4, I cannot activate the last 2 PCIs slots, the Motherboards are: Gigabyte ga-z77x-d3h MSI B450 AS pro Max. Do you know of any additional settings in the BIOS or OS? Really appresiate your help.
I'm curious how many of these cards could work in the same time! Theoretically you are able to run 50+ gpus on this mobo with 13 of this cards but it would be so interesting how does it works in real life!
Only just found this. i bought one of these as I have a bunch of old hp office machines, but couldnt make it even work with more than 1 card. From what I could tell it was down to the mobo not supplying enough power out of the pcie slot. (I was using it out a pcie16 slot in my tests). I was using some fairly old mobos (old hp pro 3500 office machines). I suspect if it was a better mobo or one of the ones with pcie power sockets I might have gotten better results but then the mobo would likely have enough pcie slots.
Hi Im new to mining. Can you tell me how you are powering that much GPUs (what risers) and Power supplies? Also what connector are you using in riser to power it. Thanks
Hi! I recommend you watch my video on safely powering your mining rig: th-cam.com/video/MIW0i7SlIYI/w-d-xo.html it will give you a lot more information than I can put into a comment. Good luck!
Iknow this is old i have one and wondered if it was PSU issues due to extra 3 cards or if the MB and Processor could handle the extra 3 cards... Were you able to fill the board with 11 GPUS or just original 8 on the board already??
Great coverage mate! Did you find out more info as to what the bottleneck was? I assume two things: either usb transfer limits to the pcie lanes or cpu pipelining lag.
Yeah might be one of those things. But seems that 13 GPUs is pretty much the max people are able to achieve except with really complicated setups on specialty motherboards. And at that point you might as well just make two rigs and avoid the headache and price of such rare motherboard lol
Hi , your video is very helpful I have some questions is your motherboard still running with this pcie splitter ?( How many months past still running after installing) Because I saw in some forum , someone burn thier motherboard after one month of running 😅
I am using Biostar TB360-BTC pro 2.0 and MSI Geforce GTX 1660ti GPUs. But Issue is windows not det vting the GPUs. Any idea how to resolve the issue .. I tried updating the bios
I am using two of these on a AMD b550 motherboard. I was trying to get 2- RX5700 and 2- RX580 mining with bios mods. I ran into some trouble doing the bios mods in hiveOS. I had switched the usb cables around as I was having trouble getting the rig to post. Hive seemed to confused the gpu order i think because of these boards, and flashed the wrong bios to the wrong cards even though it looked right in the GUI...kind of a major hive bug. Now I am trying to unbrick these 4 GPUs totally bummed. So watch out for that if using these when bios modding.
I have one of these on my rig no problem with recognizing the cards, problem is the stability. Whole rig reboots after a couple of hours. Max 2 cards no problemo will mine for days straight
Hey Buddy, I hope you can help answer my question please: I have a brand new Rig with MSI B360 motherboard and I bought 1 Non-LHR MSI RTX3070 GPU connected directly to the motherboard (no rizers yet) powered from the PSU directly. But while testing both Phoenix Miner and T-rex on windows 10, the hashrate is fluctuating between 58mh/s and 62mh/s. I also have MSI afterburner OC set exactly as i have it on my other rigs. In your experience do you know if this MSI 3070 could be the issue or perhaps the MB bios needs updating? Appreciate your help
this video was just for testing of the splitter card right ? i think if you keep the rig up for 24 hours you might have stale or rejected or may be a crash too..
Yes, on a board with 6 slots you can put them in any slot although I use the two bigger slots but I've seen no difference in performance with 1660 Supers, 1660 Ti, 1070 Ti or 2070 Super. Max number of cards I can get my boards to boot with is 11. Add a 12th and no post on any board. Completely negates the need for the m.2 to pcie adapters I have in each board which originally got me to 7 per board. I'm running 3 msi z370-pros(still available on Amazon) so it's probably a resource limit. I've finally run out of money buying and building rigs so now I'll start doing videos lol.
And one more thing, can motherboard be overloaded if i add too many cards with adapter? I know that psu can be overloaded, so is there any case that board can overload?
Is this only working with external motherboard pcie slot? I tried in my desktop computer, had 3 16x slot and small type but not worked on that small splitter (1 to 4)
Hi, sorry need help on this, i bought a cheap F2A88XM fm2+ mobo with 3 pcie and a PCIE spliter, hoping to use it on 6 cards. The splitter works but it only recognize 3 cards which makes it useless. Is there a work around?
I cant seem to use my GPU if its not connected to my screen with GPU output .. is there a way i can use motherboard output and still use the gpu for mining?
Wait but there must be a limit to this 1-4 riser right, coz if not you could have one of those mining boards and that splitter on each, that would be like 30 - 40 gpu's per rig, even if you had that luch cpu lanes
HEY BRO I HAVE 1 PCIE 16X SLOT AND I ALREADY PUT THE GPU ON IT .. I BUY THE INTERNAL ELGATO MK2 WHEN I CHECK THE MOTHERBOARD I DIDN,T FIND PLACE FOR IT ... SO WHAT SHOULD I DO ??
I'm using one and has been working fine. Someone's asking me do these things have a data capacity limit kind of deal? I'm running 3 rx580s you're running 1660 could you run four 3080s? I'm thinking this wouldn't matter but I'd like to have confirmation from another person. Thank you.
I would like know exactly which PCIe Adapter you're using! I wish to replicate the same setup but just with FirePro W7000 workstation cards. Which precise model you're using? or is there another model that's even better that this one? I'll use Max 2-4 FirePro W7000 in my own set-up.

Love this community, I’m only doing a couple extra cards off on mbo this is so so so rad.
Wow Getting Better At Your 3,2,1 Like Panda
it works actually. But there is a pcie 4x version. i would recommend splitting into 2 with a 1x one while splitting into 4 with a 4x one.
Would be interested to know if they work using HiveOS too....I imagine they would but just curious,
It will be good if we can get some feedback for hiveos, Cause hiveos may not detect that card as oppose to windows.
HiveOs doesnt recognize it????
im trying to intall it ut i cant :c
Did this actually allow you to add MORE gpu's in total to your rig than you had before? In my experience once your pcie lanes are tapped out you can't add more anyways regardless if you use a splitter or not.
Why would it? Isn't it like mining using very little bandwidth?

this video was just for testing of the splitter card right ? i think if you keep the rig up for 24 hours you might have stale or rejected or may be a crash too..
I actually had one of these splitters running in a rig for over a month without any issues.
can i use more than 1 adapter on same motherboard? i mean i have 3 pcie slot mobo, so can i add two of these in order to get more slots?
Yes, on a board with 6 slots you can put them in any slot although I use the two bigger slots but I've seen no difference in performance with 1660 Supers, 1660 Ti, 1070 Ti or 2070 Super. Max number of cards I can get my boards to boot with is 11. Add a 12th and no post on any board. Completely negates the need for the m.2 to pcie adapters I have in each board which originally got me to 7 per board. I'm running 3 msi z370-pros(still available on Amazon) so it's probably a resource limit. I've finally run out of money buying and building rigs so now I'll start doing videos lol.
@@Nikon285 okay thanks a lot.
And one more thing, can motherboard be overloaded if i add too many cards with adapter? I know that psu can be overloaded, so is there any case that board can overload?
Is this only working with external motherboard pcie slot? I tried in my desktop computer, had 3 16x slot and small type but not worked on that small splitter (1 to 4)
It works in all of them for me
What if I am using HiveOS on Linux? Would I need to flash a driver update or anything like that?
Do these still work? curios if you are still using them. Thanks for the great content!
New to your channel you got 1 sub man ❤️
I appreciate it!
Hi, sorry need help on this, i bought a cheap F2A88XM fm2+ mobo with 3 pcie and a PCIE spliter, hoping to use it on 6 cards. The splitter works but it only recognize 3 cards which makes it useless. Is there a work around?
Try plugging that splitter through one riser with PCIe, that might be the case.
I cant seem to use my GPU if its not connected to my screen with GPU output .. is there a way i can use motherboard output and still use the gpu for mining?
Wait but there must be a limit to this 1-4 riser right, coz if not you could have one of those mining boards and that splitter on each, that would be like 30 - 40 gpu's per rig, even if you had that luch cpu lanes
HEY BRO I HAVE 1 PCIE 16X SLOT AND I ALREADY PUT THE GPU ON IT .. I BUY THE INTERNAL ELGATO MK2 WHEN I CHECK THE MOTHERBOARD I DIDN,T FIND PLACE FOR IT ... SO WHAT SHOULD I DO ??
Can you install lane card or audio card to it?
Nice to know they works. Running out of pcie lanes.
does the riser also take power connection or just power from the gpu
Seb can you assign different miners to different cards to mine several different crypto on the same rig in windows 10?
Yes 👍 I have a video on how to do it here: th-cam.com/video/3S8mcetfpKg/w-d-xo.html
I'm using one and has been working fine.
Someone's asking me do these things have a data capacity limit kind of deal?
I'm running 3 rx580s you're running 1660 could you run four 3080s?
I'm thinking this wouldn't matter but I'd like to have confirmation from another person.
Thank you.
What CPU you using?
Intel Celeron G3920
I would like know exactly which PCIe Adapter you're using! I wish to replicate the same setup but just with FirePro W7000 workstation cards. Which precise model you're using? or is there another model that's even better that this one? I'll use Max 2-4 FirePro W7000 in my own set-up.
Can you put the link for the gpu splitters , because on Amazon i found some but all of them have bad quality . Thanks and good work!
if i have 6 pcie lines i can put 6 adapters or is there a limit? because potentially each Splitter would only occupy 1 pcie line
Another great vid thanks again for all the help and keep up your great work. 👍🏽💯
Hello! Just wondering if you think it would be a good idea to have a 1-to-4 GPU Splitter temporarily or permanently.
why not put 8 splitters for a 32 gpu rig?
you dont have enough PCIE lanes, except of dual CPU mobos.
Can I use splitter on DDR3 mother board?
