Title: 990FXA-GD65 showing only 2 of 6. Post by: hippiex on June 07, 2013, 03:24:31 AM Does anyone knows if there is any special trick, like shortpin / etc.., to make the 990FXA-GD65 work with 6 cards?
It only shows 2 of the 6 cards ... All of them are plugged using powered risers. ideas? ??? Title: Re: 990FXA-GD65 showing only 2 of 6.

By the way, BIOS at 19.9, ubuntu 12.04 and Catalyst 13.3 Thanks for trying to help :-) Title: Re: 990FXA-GD65 showing only 2 of 6. Post by: Boxman90 on June 08, 2013, 12:04:52 AM I run the same board. Yes you need the presence mod, but in my experience I needed them on the x16 slots as well, when using 1x-16x risers.
