Post by: konarix on February 08, 2014, 12:43:26 PM
Hi.

I can't mount more than 3 Gigabyte R9 290 Windforce.
Windows freeze during installation of drivers for fourth card.
Have tried with 13.2 and 14.1 drivers.

Bamt won't start with 4 GPU too.

Main board is MSI Z87-GD65 Gaming.
I have tried on Z77A-G43 - the same problem.

All cards on Risers 1x and 16x (without molex).
Two PSU 1000W each.
8GB of RAM and Intel G3220.

Can anybody help me?

BR.

Try Windows 8.1 if you haven't already.

BTW, why you using the x1 and without molex? You got 3x PCI-e x16 connections, you could easily utilize 2 of em with enough room in between.

Hi.
Thank You for answer.

I got win 8.1

I have bought 4x PCIx1 and 2xPCIx16 without molex because it is my first RIG  :-\

So Do You sugest to place 2 GPU directly to mainboard to PCIx16 and other two on risers x1 ?

Thank You.
