ok this is a strange one , i got a third AR version of this chipset its the prime Z270-AR

the other two are working fine with 8 cards , 7 on pcie and one on m2 adapter , this board

worked fine wth 4g decoding and 5 cards, two days later tried to add 3 more cards, now it crashes right away after bios screen, uninstalled drivers wit uud, i see all 8 cards , crashes again when trying to update driver.

tried to rol back to my original 5 card build removing the extra 3 cards same crash when installing drivers

same crap happens when i reinstall win 10 ... flakey board?
try to install an older nvidia driver.
It was an amd build, It was a bad card or something maybe the riser

Hi, i have a serious issue with my new z270-p board. No slots works with risers, i have tried them with a dozen differrent. All the right settings in bios (4g envoding, gen 1 etc), latest bios and fresh windows 10 install. Gpu-fan is running but cards doesnt show up, tried with 5 different cards (and they do work connected directly in pci-e slot). Any ideas

What kind of riser ? molex, sata, 12v only

How do you connect power in ?

Hi, they are usb3 with molex on riser card and an additional 6-pin pci-e at the card.

It would help to isolate driver issues.  The OP mentioned this is his third Z270-AR board.  Is it running the same vid cards and OS? 


try to install an older nvidia driver.

how this can help?  Huh

If you plug the vid card directly in and it works, then it's not the mobo, power supply, OS or driver.  You are only left with how everything is connected with the riser (everything seated correctly).  Have you tried  just one video card with the riser?  Try resetting the mobo to factory and plug in just one video card with the riser.  It won't matter if 4g encoding is on or not with one card.  The point is to get one working to rule out what you can before complicating it with multiple cards.

There is something wrong with both 16X PCIE, beacuse in BIOS under Advanced-PEG Port Configuration option PCIEX16_1 is set to NOT PRESENT !!! I can't change that value, on working motherboard in other rig, this setting is set to x1.
Update BIOS.

Plug in one card to one of the 16x slots to see if the computer sees it.  Now test the other 16x slot with the same card.  If both slots work with one video card then most likely it's not a faulty slot on the mobo.


Im using:

ASUS Prime Z270-P
6 x MSI RX 580 8GB Hynix memory
64-bit Windows 7


Board has 4x 1x PCIE and 2x 16x PCIE.

If I plug same card in all 1X PCIE it's working. If I plug in two 16x PCIE, computer doesn't recognise the card.

Is it fault 16X PCIE ports ( faulty motherboard) or is some settings in BIOS ?

well I am splitting my vga cables. I figured that they can power 150w cards for the 8pin connector, so I used a splitter and with a undervolted 1070 or 1060, it seems to be working fine. cables aren't even warm to touch.






It took me a while to get all 6 gpu's recognized but I managed after many attempts!  Now I'm tempted to try a 7th and 8th GPU using m.2 PCIE adapters like some of you guys, but how are you powering a 7th and 8th GPU?  I'm using a EVGA 1200W power supply and it only has 6 VGA connectors/cables and I assume it's not a good idea to use a Y-splitter cable for the extra two GPU's.  My 6-rig GPU is using about 735W as I'm limiting the power to 60% on MSI Afterburner.

Are you guys using a SATA-PCIE cable of some sort?  Is that safe?

PEG Port config. I changed it to gen1

p.s. I now have 8 gpus and onboard graphics running at same time. I am very surprised that no one has gotten 9gpu's to run on widows. I might try with the z270-a that I have coming.


@ssdaytona: which GEN1 config worked for you?
DMI MAX LINK SPEED? PEG PORT CONFIGURATION? PCH CONFIGUTATION?

I have all those set to gen3. All my problems came from bad m.2 adapters or risers. The new risers seems worse to me than the old ones with molex power connectors. More bad pieces...

I have to say, the 0810 BIOS is best. I just recently added a seventh card to my z270-p that had a 0610 BIOS and it was crashing every 5-10minutes, updated to 0810 and made the necessary gen1 change. viola, works great.


can we have 8 gpus and the onboard graphics at the same time?

yes
