At this moment I have one 1x4 adapter with 3 GPU, dont see any substential difference from other 5 GPU connected on MB, they all are from 30-31 MH/s. I use adapter for 7-8 days, and it works nice , ordered only 1pt to see how it works

I am waiting for this type of adapter 1x4 (pci-e 1x card) arrive but I am running now with 1 x 8 pci-e adapter (pci-e 16x card) and running some old amd cards (8x R7 370 2GB models), I just wanna know if add one or maybe two adapter 1x4 pci-e can running this motherboard with more GPU, like you I am just wanna see how it works all together.

Yes, works nice, managed to start 8 pieces of Rx-580. Only needed to reinstall drivers.

Right now you just using one adapter 1x to 4 pci-e and using 4x pci-e from the board or using two adapter 1x to 4x pci-e ? Any speed issues or have same speed like RX 580 are directly connected to the board ?

This board is driving me nuts! I had big problems getting just 2x ZOTAC 1080GTX to run,but managed in the end by putting them in specific PCI slots. Now I have a extra 4 cards, but I never get more than 4 recognized (most of the time I get just 3).

Tried all the tips, running latest F25 BIOS. I need to enable CSM or my SSD will not boot on the SATA port.

Will sell the full rig out of frustration soon, but before I do, any final clues?

Help rewarded....

Read this thread about 8 times when I was having a mare setting this board up with vegas. In case it helps anyone - the 16x slot seems to use resources differently to the others.

Enabling mining, Gen 2, using internal graphics brings the shorter slots online, but if you use that longer slot it hogs , especially with Vegas. I had crash after crash till I swapped from using that 16x slot.

hey! did you just ignore pci16 slot on the mobo? or you used riser for that? or?

I really like this board, easy setting and the price is very cheap in my country. Bios Version F21 (so i don't have mining mode option on my Bios)
I had 1x GTX1080Ti and 5x GTX1070, running well on this Board. My bios setting max link speed : Gen2, Initial Display Output : IGFX, Above 4G Decoding : Enabled.
I'm running windows 10 Pro 64 on Legacy Mode Cheesy

and so far so good

Can you specified what's need to be enabled. I'm starting to crazy.

Well my settings are virtualization (VT-D) disabled, Pcie gen 2 (need due using pci-e to 8 pci-e port adapter but you can try pci gen 1 or 3 to see what be OK in your setup here and the most setups all worked fine with pci gen 2), 4G decoding enabled, IGFX disabled (due 8 x pci-e adapter don't work all 8 ports if internal graphics are enabled), mining mode disable, csm support Enable to be compatible boot from usb etc

Whether you have mining mode enabled or not it doesn't matter. Enabling it only enables above 4g decoding and disable csm support.

If you disable csm support and didn't install windows using uefi mode then you will have issues. You don't have to enable mining mode. Just enable 4g decoding and enable csm support.

My settings are Disabled Intel virtualization, Pcie gen 1, enable 4g decoding, initial display igfx, mining mode disable, enable csm support. Unless you know you have flashed your windows 10 in uefi mode then you can go ahead and disable csm support. Make sure under csm video is uefi then save and reset and go in bios and then disable csm support.

How to flash windows 10 into your thumb drive in uefi mode, Google Rufus.

This Mainboard is so Fucking instable and has the most bugs ever. With FW 25a, as soon as i enable "mining mode" booting from USB is not possible anymore. (USB Stick disappear)
I was not able to find a Version which runs smooth with HIVEOS, i ripped that boards out of my Rigs and replaced it with H81pro BTC.

New FW 25d available.

When enable Mining Mode here same thing happen no possible to booting from USB but you can keep mining mode disable and just enable all things to mining fine, if you have time just give it one more chance.

Says it quite clearly here: https://www.gigabyte.com/MicroSite/462/mining.html

you are right, I didn't pay attention to the part of the numbers. If it is 7 it should say 6+1 M.2 (like the others)
Lot of people makes the same mistake asking about the 7th GPU through M.2
Good to know, thanks

Hardware limitation. M.2 is sata only. Im running 8 cards on this board without any problem. 5 amd 580 8gb and 3 nvidia 1060 6gb. Mining at 225 Mh/s on claymore 11.2.

anyone managed to run 7 GPU???
the 7th running through M.2 riser

The M.2 riser unfortunately does not work for gpu only for SSD

Dang this really sucks, I just bought a bunch of M.2 -> PCI-e 4x adapters Sad

is this a hardware limitation or a BIOS limitation?
