Hello

I also had problems when I add my 6th card,

You have to change the registry base so that the 6 cards appear.

Here is the link: https://lbr.id.lv/6xgpu_mod/

And connect your screen to card 2 (pci 16) of the motherboard, because if you plug in card 1, I have a black screen.

Hello everyone

Now I have same problem but for 6GPUs!

-Mobo: Asrock H81 Pro btc Bios v P2.30 tried with Gen1 and 2
-CPU: Intel Dual Core G3420 3.2 GHz
-6Rx 480 8gb nitro+
-RAM 8GB DDR3 1600Mhz
-SSD
-1600watt PSU

It works perfectly with 5 cards, but when I add the 6th to any slot mobo not even gives display (POST)
Again if i removed any of 6 cards and display comes and runs with 5 Cards perfectly

Any idea please why its not even give any sort of display or POST when i add 6th card on any slot

Pimp is also a great software for mining.I suggest you both use Ethos and Pimp and compare.

maybe you need if you have other rigs to have all same rigs to work with new card because maybe is that connected i really dont know what i am talking but maybe i say true idk really i am minning beginner.

What was the problem?

Thanks to BTC_Istanbul problem solved.

You do not need any modification for 5 card @ windows 10.

I will not lock so people experiencing similar problems can use the info and network.

Hello .
A great big thank you to you the friend !!!!
it works !
Finally I have my 5 cards working!
thank you !

Finally I have solved.About two weeks ago windows released an update which causes driver failure.Well, you install the latest driver.The latest driver installation triggers a reset to your over/under clock settings.Well,I can prove it.If you use Claymore (if not switch to) you will have log files you can see it there.Further more, if you check you will see '"ATIKMPAG.SYS" which corresponds the PSU problem.

What I recommend you either switch to Linux or change your PSU.Plus malware may do the same driver update and reason failure.Good luck.If it does not snow and you have free time I can visit you at the power plant.

My OS is Windows 10.

I can not use Pimp since it does not suppor RX 480 AMD cards.

Linux is a good alternative and seems the best option.I am not familiar with Linux.If nochoice I will do it.

Well, to uninstall and install option has been delivered many times.

Unlike the answers the latest catalyst version is not the best.We can discuss it later.

I am running a farm and cloning my ssd s and I have found a malware.

The rigs still work and close down about half an hour later.Very interesting other RX 480 and R9 390X cards work flowless.There is something special to the Asus ROG 8 Gb cards.

I will try Linux by tomorrow if I can not solve the problem.


PS:What is the best remote control pogram for Linux?

I have several working.  See my post . . .or don't.  More hashes for me

G oto device manager and go to properties. What error code do you see? Is it 43? Dont just say yellow triangle..

Thank you friend, I'll go see this.

For ethos I think about it but I know nothing about linux,













And friends I think I have found,

Apparently if you plug a card on the pci-16  blocks a pci-1.

(Yellow triangle)

So ca done 5maxi on the asrock btc h81.

But a pci-1 riser can be connected to the pci-16 socket on the motherboard.

The solution to your problem has been posted by Hotmetal.

^^^you need this in order to see more than 4 cards in Windows 7 and 10. (I have not tried 8 so i cannot speak to it.)

I have this exact same board and had to run this mod to make it work in windows. If you are mining ETH  I would personally recommend ethOS. It is a very simple linux setup that will pretty much just work out of the box.

Hello everyone

I have exactly the same problem!

-motherboard: asrock btc pro rev2
-cpu: Celeron G1840 2.8 GHz
-5rx 480 8go reference
-ssd
-4GB
-food lepa 1000w


It works perfectly with 4 cards, but when I add the 5th.

In the device manager there is the yellow triangle as the screenshot of gablay12.

I try full of thing

Uninstall driver with ddu,

Restart with a gpu on the pci-16

Instal driver 16.9.2, try also with the 19.9.1

it works .

I insertind the pc, I add a card.

I reboot, it also works,

And when I plug the 5th card. It is not detected by watman,

And the device manager tells me who has a problem. On the 5 th card.

So I try to put the driver in manual, but it tells me that the driver is already installed. Wtf!

Bios a day, I try gen 1 and 2.

always the same .

We can say that the motherboard can not manage 6 cards, but 4 maximum.



I do not understand ..... I know more what to do.

We will say that the problem is known.

Looks like your system is corrupted.  All the words are gibberish. . . .


But seriously, most likely not a MB issue.  In my experience MB issues usually prevent windows from even seeing the card.  Most likely it is a driver issue.  I have several 6 and 7 card RX rigs with various asrock MBs including the proBTC.  I have found, with the RX series at least, the best drivers are the default ones that windows installs.  To fix your problem, run DDU or AMDs uninstaller.  Restart windows and let it install drivers.  I believe DDU turns off windows auto-detect driver setting, but you can run it again and click a button to enable.

Windows doesn't always detect all of your cards correctly, but they should still be listed somewhere in the device manager.  If they are incorrectly detected, just right click on them in device manager and select update driver.  It should correctly identify and install drivers.

If you have tried installing drivers from AMD several times, sometimes things just get too screwed up to fix (or at least will take too long to figure out).  Since it only takes me 10 mins to install win10 on an SSD, you may just want to reinstall.  Again, just let windows find its own drivers.  It does take a few mins to detect them all.  If all are not detected after 10 mins at idle, find them in device manager and click on the update drivers.

Unfortunately, I cannot get Claymore's to get temps and fan speeds, but they still all mine.

Happy mining.

I have 5 rigs of RX 480.


Your graphics image kinda looks like Windows 8 or maybe Windows 10.
I've only seen this error in Windows 7, Windows 8, 8.1.



Disable On board VGA graphics in bios.
Primary Display in bios should be set to pcie graphics.

Video connector should be connected to the card with the x16 (big) pcie slot.


To run 6 cards, its best to have Windows 10 versus windows 8.1 or even Windows 7.



Your graphics image kinda looks like Windows 8 or maybe Windows 10.

If you are really running Windows 10, then you may want to do a clean reinstall.  Upgrading from Windows 7 to Windows 10 or Windows 8 to Windows 10 has caused many errors on my RX 480 systems.

Click Start Menu, Click settings, Click Update & Security, Click Recovery, Click "Learn how to start fresh with a clean installation of Windows", Download the tool and run it.

Keep your data, but wipe all other settings.   Or do a complete reinstall.

In order to get 4-6 cards to work, sometimes you need to go into the mobo settings (usually f2 or del when starting up ) and change all the pcie bandwidths to gen 2.

As suggested before , put a monitor on this card and put the riser on the x16 slot and install the driver , than put all your cards! Connect a monitor to it it will work!

YEP YEP YEP.. disable onboard graphics from ASROCK bios settings. And I think you should be good to go. Thats why I was asking for the screenshot of device manager ! Try it

As i see, you forgot to disable CPU graphics!
Disable it in a BIOS
Also, if CPU graphics set to "Auto", so use x16-x16 riser in a first slot (meet same at my Asrock Anniversary)
I'm use the cheapest non-powered one case MB supports one card freely

P.S. Asrock noted that in multi GPU system user need to install first card in x16 slot and only than install other cards (may be not need, but i'm follow a note)
