Title: Asus Motherboard PRIME Z270-P latest BIOS (v1205) causes boot loop on 5th GPU
Post by: nmersulypnem on May 27, 2018, 03:00:43 PM

Rig was working with 7 Vega 64s prior to bios update.  I set 4G encoding enabled, and set all PCI/PEG links to gen1 and I've tried reinstalling Win 10 and both with and without the AMD BC drivers installed.

Anyone else is experiencing the same issue?

BIOS Update did this?

I believe so.  I've swapped out everything except the mobo.  ...and one annoyance is that it seems like a one-way BIOS update.  It won't let me even go back to revision 1010 from last month!

One theory I have is that it has some altered sensitivity to power draw.  Running 7x Vega 64s was a bit hungry, so there were some issues before - but now I can't even get 5 running.

your posts don't belong here.  I asked mods to move  it.
