It would also be a waste, because you got a nice Mobo that actually supports PCIe x8 on all seven slots simultaneously.
I know that these Thermaltake risers are really expensive, but for me they are doing a great job so far. If you want to go save a bit of money here, I recommend that you order your frame first and then do some testing and measuring to figure out what lengths you actually need.
I only knew the passiv Thermaltake-Risers,.... do they have also have a powered version?
A RTX2080TI needs 75W from the PCIe-Sockel if this article is correct( https://tweak.de/grafikkarte/msi-geforce...ing-x-trio)
With 7x GPUs you need 525W on your PCI-Bus, i´m not sure if the mainboard will provide so much power.
Do you have some benchmarks between x1 and x8 risers?
