I am using two of these on a AMD b550 motherboard. I was trying to get 2- RX5700 and 2- RX580 mining with bios mods. I ran into some trouble doing the bios mods in hiveOS. I had switched the usb cables around as I was having trouble getting the rig to post. Hive seemed to confused the gpu order i think because of these boards, and flashed the wrong bios to the wrong cards even though it looked right in the GUI...kind of a major hive bug. Now I am trying to unbrick these 4 GPUs totally bummed. So watch out for that if using these when bios modding.

I know this video is a little bit old but I managed to build a 10 RTX 3060 ti LHR rig with two of this at full capacity.
MOBO: ROG STRIX B450-F GAMING II
CPU: Athlon 3000g
RAM: hyperx 4gb 2666 mhz
People told me that this couldn't be done with an Athlon 3000g as it only supports 6 pcie lanes, but I had no trouble in the process. I don't remember exactly what BIOS settings I changed, but I tried to disable everything like SATA ports, HD audio, etc and enabled 4g decoding.

Hi Sebs, I am using this PCIE splitter card in my laptop's M.2 interface which is PCIE X16 with a M.2 to PCIE adapter, it works good, but now I am not satisfied with four GPU cards, I would like to know could the second PCIe splitter card plug in previous one? Just like a tree structure, 1-to-4, then 4-to-16, then 16-to-64, of course not so many actually. I don't know if you have done this experiment, if you have a try, I hope to see in your reply.

Iknow this is old i have one and wondered if it was PSU issues due to extra 3 cards or if the MB and Processor could handle the extra 3 cards... Were you able to fill the board with 11 GPUS or just original 8 on the board already??

The only issue is that they tend to overheat, best thing to do is remove
the cheap heatsink and put a fan on top of it, i have 4 cards installed
in one and 3 on the other, 2 pci mini-atx motherboard.
