would love to see the riser setup that you're using for such a monster!

we mostly gave up and just got barebones machines since the cabling situation becomes pretty tricky, and the barebones total cost is low relative to the GPUs anyways.

I posted a link just below to twitter with an image of the riser setup. That setup worked well for 4x, but for the 7x we're moving the cards upside down and setting them up like tree branches if you will. So the trunk/floor is the motherboard and you get close to edges, the cards are angled and use longer riser cables.

The issue we had with barebones was cost and cooling, we use 30$ racks from Target and hang the GPUs with metal zip ties and a box fan from below, so they get lots of air and we don't break the bank and can easily roll them around.
