Title: ASUS Z-270-A success stories w/12x1080ti? Post by: crypto4pizza on January 24, 2018, 09:48:45 AM Has anyone been successful with stability on a 12x1080ti rig on an ASUS Z270-A motherboard using a PCIE Expander?
I'm currently using an expander from Ubit with no success. Title: Re: ASUS Z-270-A success stories w/12x1080ti? Post by: 0xcosmos on January 24, 2018, 12:09:19 PM i do not think pcie extender work with nvidia

I'm currently using an expander from Ubit with no success. I hope you are trying that in Linux, because Windows does not support more than 8 same cards.

At least this one: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/PCI-E-to-PCI-E-Adapter-1-Turn-4-PCI-Express-Slot-1x-to-16x-USB/32833259844.html?spm=a2g0s.9042311.0.0.I4NdDS Title: Re: ASUS Z-270-A success stories w/12x1080ti? Post by: crocozino on January 31, 2018, 11:09:40 AM My PCI-E extender are soon to arrive, but as far as I know it is working good with any nv card
so I'm doubting there should be problem, but, because of it is chinese staff this thing might be broken from the beginning, in that case just ask a refund or just change it Title: Re: ASUS Z-270-A success stories w/12x1080ti?

I probably wasted 4 days trying to get the 12 card rig stable with the expander. Title: Re: ASUS Z-270-A success stories w/12x1080ti?

Latest win10 build works just fine with 12 cards ;) Title: Re: ASUS Z-270-A success stories w/12x1080ti?

It’s is not true that windows can not support more than 8 GPUs. I myself running 10 GPUs with Windows 10 for sometime. All are gtx 1070s. You probably have to update the windows current updates. It should work. I also run couple of 12 GPU rigs with ethos which is also very good and stable. Title: Re: ASUS Z-270-A success stories w/12x1080ti?

There's no more limitation. |
