Wait, how is this connected to 1 mobo? I'm legitimately curious. That's a LOT of PCI-e 16x ports.
Edit: Ohhh... I think I just answered my own question. It's two mining rigs lined up. I recall something about a mobo with 6 PCI-e 16x ports, and there's a slightly bigger gap between the 6th and 7th gpus in this picture. Plus, the 7th gpu fans are stopped.
Then it's a matter of connecting them gpus with extension cables of sorts to improve heat dissipation, and tada!
Hey, I think that's enough to mine a bitcoin every few weeks. On a serious note this is very obviously being used for mining.
Yep, was explained by a few folks in the comments section, though there's this one...
And that's how I got the title.
This comment aged horribly.
