Start with filling all of the black PCI-e slots first then move to filling the white ones.

Hmm interesting. On Asrock website they advise to put first vga into full slot. Than start from the closest to CPU and follow in order.

For me it is worked well.

Make sure all of your PCI slots are set to Gen 1 in the BIOS.

Windows 10 1709 Creators or above may help.

Use the same power supply to feed the 2 molex plugs near the PCI-e slots on the motherboard. These MUST be supplied powered on that board.

Start with filling all of the black PCI-e slots first then move to filling the white ones.

Test with different risers as well to make sure you don't have a faulty riser.

I also recommend making sure that the riser and the video card are also fed off the same power supply!

Hope this helps!

They need to come out with the latest firmware release from what I remember last time I checked into to see how many cards can be enabled on a single mobo.
Either this one or the one Asus released with 19 gpus at once.
They can not get it past 7 or 8 cards without that firmwire update they have promised to release for months now so to enable this vital selling point of what these motherboards were made to do.

Hi motoprose, would be able to see which mobo it is for? There is a BIOS upgrade posted on website but suggest not to do that.
I have asked the asrock tech support mentioning this problem. Hope to find some reply from them.

My bad.
It was for the asus boards.
Here is what they said on their website for their mobo that does not get past 8gpus without the update to their latest firmware:
B250 Mining Expert currently supports a total of up to eight NVIDIA and AMD GPUs. An unlimited number of GPUs will be supported following a driver update that is planned for Q4 2017.

Having the exact same problem.

My setup is :

Asrock H110 Pro btc+
8g Ram (2x 4g dimms)
Pentium 4560
10x XFX R580's
3x 850w PSU (platinum)

For now i have only connected 7 cards using 2 psu's. Im waiting for a cable to connect all 10 cards and the 3rd psu.

I setup windows and installed the wrong drivers first. So had to use DDU and reinstall the AMD crimson pack. Now gpu-z and windows device manager sees 6 cards.
I did a bios update but that didnt change anything.
Also when i have my display connected to one of the 580's i CANNOT access bios setting.
If i disconnect all cards and use onboard graphics i can access bios but i get the same picture as the OP posted. Only 7 pciE showing in bios.

what gives?

btw using 6x cards with modded bios and AMD mining drivers gives me 30Mh/s on claymore mining Ethereum but i have 10x cards and i need to use them all.

thanks for any help..much appreciated!

I too have have the similar setup as yours. I sent an email to the asrock tech support through their website. Hope to get some response.

You need to use Windows 10 1709 (Fall Creator Update) and 17.11.4 AMD Drivers and don"t forget to change mode to COMPUTE for all GPU.

I'm in BTC XTC

You're in the wrong section, this area is for Bitcoin only and GPUs have been obsolete for direct mining of BTC for years. Repost/move this to the Altcoin section.

Hello, the mobo asrock h110 pro btc+ accepts maximum of 13 gpus and people were successful with 12 gpus.
But I cannot make the 8th gpu to get recognized under Windows 10 or Ubuntu 16.04.
Only 7 maximum it get recognize. I swapped with power connectors and the pci-e slot and only the first 7 (1 is closer to the cpu) always gets recognized.
As in the ]link, under the bios, there is only 7 pci-e is shown.
I am using PSU with 1200 watts and it has enough power to run 8 GPUs. Also tried secondary PSU(850 watts) and connecting just that 8th gpu.
In both the cases, the fan spins, lights on but it gets unnoticed.
I am using gpuz and windows device manager and there are only 7 listed.

It looks like there could be some bios settings that limits to only 7 gpus but not sure though. Played around with bios settings and cleared the CMOS with battery reset but did not help.
Anyone faced such issue? Please let me know.

Thanks
