RIG setup / GPU detection - Asrock H81 issues - page 2.

Hi all,

Recently I just bought all the components for my first rig. But I'm having issues to make all of them work together.
What I bought:

- AsRock H81 PRO BTC R2.0
- Intel Pentium G3260 3.3 GHz 3mo Cache Socket 1150
- ddr3 ram
- ssd
- 6* Risers (6 pins powered)
- Corsair HX1000i
- 5*Zotac GTX 1060 6GB mini

I searched on the forum, most of times it's due to bad risers, but I checked each risers one by one. All of them are working.

But when I try to put more than 1 GPU, there is detection issues.

I don't know what I did wrong. I see 3 possibilities:

After reading the forum, I understood that I shouldn't use the SATA converter in the riser package to power the riser(overheat, melting etc..). So I used somes Molex to 6 pins converter to power it.
example of converter I'am using: https://i.rue-montgallet.com/809317-adaptateur-molex-vers-pcie-6pins.jpg
But it's not working, the GPU isn't detected. But if I swap the Molex to 6 pins on the GPU and the 8 pins to 6 pins on the riser, it works.

So don't know why it's enough to power the GPU but not the riser ?

The second possibility I see is the PCIE power port on the motherboard. Should I power both of them with molex ?

The third possibility I see is a bad BIOS setting, for now, I only swaped primary GPU display from PCIE to Onboard.
(With PCIE I have a black screen.).

Thank you
