It has 6 pcie slots and is a Z97 board, so it should - with risers - support 6 cards.

You may have to set the PCIE version to Gen 1.0 in the BIOS and use Linux instead of Windows (or vice versa), these seem to be common solutions with 6 GPU rigs. You do not have to use any risers if you get dual GPU graphics cards.

Title: Re: GIGABYTE GA-Z97X-UD3H - does it work for ETH mining Post by: Saromon52 on September 24, 2017, 04:49:15 PM Hi did you manage to run 6 GPU's on it
I am able to identify all six but having stability only in 3 * 1080ti once I go 4 gpu's I get tdr error in some time and the 5th and 6th are old 770 and 750 and are not functioning properly. The best I could manage was 5 cards on claymore but again very unstable kept of restarting. Now am trying to find a way to atleast run the 4 * 1080ti Any possibilities of get it done ? Or should I just go buy a new better mother board ? |
