Just little trick, connect all the cards via the PCIe and M2 adapter and just don't connect top X1 PCIe!.(this *** that causing all the problems).
wait that windows will install all the 7 GPUS and then shut down and connect the the 8th GPU on the top PCIe X1 and reboot and wait 4 install.
Hope it helped you :-).
Topic: z270-p asus only showing 7gpu but not 8 gpu!!!! please help (Read 1782 times)
I'm getting a boot loop on bios 1205 that was just released... anyone else have this problem?
I'm no expert here but in this video I go over what we did to the bios on the asus prime z270 p to get 8 cards working, just built another rig on this board and its working perfect w/ 8 cards also

Hello, could someone help me please?
I have windows 10 Pro, Asus z270-p
3 x 1070 and 5 x 1070ti
I cannot get number 7 or 8 to show up.
What is happening: the PCIEX16_1 slot will not work. If I plug into this slot, it goes to bios and restarts, over and over again infinitely, looking like a black screen
This is the same if there is 2 or 8 cards total plugged in.
Also, the 2nd m.2 slot does not get recognized anywhere (i tried the fix here to unplug the power to it)
I am guessing this is a common problem, but somehow people are managing to have 8x1070 on this board... can someone please give me some tips?
Thank you!

Don't cry - 
I have eight cards running on asus z-270p. Will add the ninth card next week.
Here is the setting i use for the bios:
System Agent configuration - dmi\opi configuration - dmi max link speed - gen1
- peg port configuration - pciex16_1\pciex16_2 gen1, pcie spread spectrum clocking disable
PCH configuration - pci express configuration - pcie speed gen1
onboard device configuration - hd audio disabled
APM configuration - restore ac power loss - last state
boot - next boot after ac power loss - fast boot enabled
- post delay time 0 seconds
- above 4g decoding enabled
After setting the bios, you can DDU (device driver uninstaller ) google and download it to uninstall the nvida drivers. Then you plus in the card one by one, each new card should get recognized by win 10 as basic display adapter with and exclamation in the device manager (be sure to update to latest win 10). You need to add one card, then shutdown, then add another one, then start to check again, then add one more, like this.
If any card fails to show up in device manager, may be the power supply to the card, or the pcie raiser or the card itself is bad.
- i had one bad card for which the fan is always rotating. When card recognized by OS, the fan should not assuming the mining software is not running yet.
- it can be a bad pcie power supply or riser as well
- i connect the sata SSD on sata port 3, the manual shows 0 and 5 has something that i don't remember exactly
- you need to make sure you boot from uefi mode (run msinfo32)
- or bad m2 to pcie or bad m2 to pcie power
Hope this helps. let me know how it goes

Up ur BIOS to last version version 0810 link : http://dlcdnet.asus.com/pub/ASUS/mb/LGA1151/PRIME_Z270-P/PRIME-Z270-P-ASUS-0810.zip
Ensure u do all the setting u see above, if u use windows remove all ur driver with the tool for this ( dont remenber the name, a good will can give this to him ? Or i assume u gona find it ) if u use a build-in for mining, do a fresh copy on ur harddrive or usb ( back to default )
Plug one card, boot on, work, plus another, etc ... dont forget dont plug molex power on ur card riser plugged on ur baseboard.
I get stuck like u before ... this way i solve my problem.
As i say before do u switch u M2 card to step the card itself ? Unplug the M2 card on working, plus the unworking, to test issue at least.
That my last point, i cant help u more on this after, i am news on this think, just read a lot ...
Bibi187 actually i set m.2 to peic already but same problem. but why many people have m2_1 and m2_2 but i only have one?
I assume u already switched ur M2 card with the one working to test it at least. If u havent, do this to be sure the card working.
On your BIOS setting, i dont remenber exactly where ( In "advanced" ) check u setup M2 port to PCIE.

Bibi187 i have try this just now the result is same only 5 gtx1070 and 2 1060 show up. the last 1060 doesnt show up. haiz.... dont know what to do already sad
Unplug every card, plug the GPU that wont boot on the M2_2 on any port ( exept M2_2 )
Start OS, working, stop OS, add one card, start OS, working, stop OS, add another etc ... by one.
Plug on the M2_2 at last step
Start OS, working, stop OS, add one card, start OS, working, stop OS, add another etc ... by one.
Plug on the M2_2 at last step
Bibi187 i have try to take out the m.2 power and plug back the riser gpu power. then i plug in the 8gpu besides the cpu fan. device manager also doesnt show up the 8gpu. should i take out all and plug back 1 by 1?
sorry Bibi187 i have try this just now it doesn't work for me too. just like you say i disconnect the molex power from the riser and the m.2 4pin power keep there. when i switch on the pc the whole pc is black screen and say my bios is gone. then i restart it it didnt show up anything, after i take all the gpu out and left one for display then it back but the whole bios is reset.
then i plug in one by one plus restart. last until the m.2_2 same it doesnt show up anything. have you happend this? black screen and the bios reset.
then i plug in one by one plus restart. last until the m.2_2 same it doesnt show up anything. have you happend this? black screen and the bios reset.
Just disconnect the molex 4 pin power cable connected to ur M2_2 card, not the power cable of your riser board connected on your GPU.
Sorry for my little english

sorry for long time waiting. because i working oversea until now and just came back. i have try u method but is the same thing only showing up 7gpu. and i have try whether is the riser spoil or what but i use the gpu as display is can work and until the last gpu then all back to 7gpu the 8 is nothing there. i have try all gpu who insert to the m.2 to pcie just besides the cpu fan sure there is nothing show up. and all the risers and card is work just the m.2 place cant detect.
and so sorry my version is 0808 not 0610 BIOS. or maybe is because of the version too new? and i using win10. i have all the pic but i didnt know how to post here.

Hi LouisLoo,
i have the same issue as u have, the M2_2 port dont work. If u managed 7 GPU, do this little simple trick and there u go.
Disconnect the molex power pluged on the riser ( from M2_2 only ) and lets run your fresh 8 rig
