I don't know of anyone who has gotten eight Nvidia GPUs to work in Windows on the Tyan chassis. I have seen lots of "help this doesn't work!" posts though, with no resolution. Which begs the question, why would you build a system like that and populate it with Nvidia GPUs?
It's not actually for hashcat - I just stumbled upon this forum through Google searches. The target application for this system is Octane Render, which requires CUDA, and only uses single precision, so GTX 780 is the most cost effective card currently on the market.
I guess the 8th card will have to go into another box then.
