Oh my bad I'm trying to build a mining rig with 10 1080s (couldn't find any GTX 1080 TIs) on a B250 MOBO I will need at least 3 PSU I would like to get something that is just made for it. Any advice will be welcome!

Sounds like you'll need to wait for evga's upcoming 2200w.

Is it four or is it ten? Is it SLI or is it mining? You need to get your story straight.

I’m building a mining RIG using the B250 mobo showed by bcavnaugh, I don’t need SLI. I should change the title, my bad I apologize for the confusion.

Calculate the total load of all the gear you will be running --> in mining its not always full power on the GPUs, from what I've read on EVGA Forums The total load should not exceed 80% capacity of the PSU for 24x7 operations if you want good life from the PSU - keep it clean and cool also The second issue is the number and type of power connections for the planned layout 1) How many and what kind of PCIe power connections you need is a constraint 2) What other devises do you need to power in your intended design

Well that’s what I’m not sure about I need to connect 10 gpus 1080s in a B250 mobo, or Z270 mobo, it will be pure mining.

If you had been truthful upfront in your first post you would of had a better response from Forum Members. Most of all you would of have had help from Fellow Miners that have the experience needed to help find a solution for your needs. You will also find a lot of information in this area of the Forum Cryptocurrency

Sounds fishy getting mixed up with whether it's 4 or 10 cards.
