I have so many problems with this board. Probably just bios fucking me over all the time. I have 3x 1060 3gb and 3x p106-100 mining

Can't seem to get to work with 6gpus at the time. All 6 of them work fine separately. But when I plug them in all together I am stuck at Windows logo screen and the loading circle keeps circling.

I have tried enabling 4g decoding and then I don't even get to the windows screen. I tried switching to GEN1 and GEN2 still nothing. I did Windows 8.1/10 WHQL Support -> Enabled too.

Is there anything I am missing out? I once get them to boot with all 6, but then one GPU showed me following error: "This device cannot find enough free resources that it can use. (Code 12).

I restarted and added 4gb RAM and didn't get it up and running.

I have few rigs with asrock pro btc h81 r2.0 and didn't had a problem with them at all. Then there was a time I coudn't get any cpu for Asrock motherboard so had to buy this one..

Anyone with similar problems?

I really like this board, it works great. But it needs a little more then crying about it like a kid. You need to update the bios and enable the mining mod. Which is stated even in their website...

First things fist - have you flashed the bios? I have two rigs based on these boards, each with 6 gpu`s, working just fine. I also had issues first day to get those cards reckognized by the system. Install the windows and the drivers with just one card, then go with adding cards one by one. Also, check are all of your risers functional.

Check at bios setting, make sure you Enabled Mining Mode on bios setting

I'm used this Motherboard and work well on my rig
you can try :)

If I enable mining mode I can't get to windows. I just see gigabyte logo then black screen... Did you just enable mining mode and nothing else?

Plug your VGA Cable monitor to Internal Graphic motherboard, not to GPU Card

I only use this board, i prefer to set it up manually, pci gen 2, primary video igfx, boot set to other os, 4g enabled, igfx enabled, ac always on.  It always worked.
Use the latest bios 23a.

You probably have riser or driver problems.

Hmmm....the board seems to be rather popular. Maybe it is you that sucks. Anyways, you may want to do a bit more research and testing before posting that something sucks.

Its an excellent board. Easy af to set up. Cheap. The last 5 mobos I purchased have been these and as soon as they're back in stock they are what i'll keep buying.
Literally idiot proof.

Found your problem. You are running Windows.

install windows in uefi mode with rufus format as gparted!!!

Yes this board really sucks! So I start from the beginning. First of it took me like 3 hours until I got my network running (never had issues on other boards). Installed all drivers (turned on 4g decoding, gen 2) and it turned on but 4 out of 6 failed to mine. So I disconnected 5 cards and flashed the newest(f23)  bios.. Everything looked fine so I connected more cards. When there are 4 cards connected,  cryptonight is working correctly but when i try for example claymore eth,  then 2 of the gpus are not working. Ok, i tried to connect another (5th) gpu. When i started mining with nicehash it always gave me the error "gpu-x failure, disabling.. Gpu-y failure disabling". Always 2 random gpus fail to start mining. In the device manager all 5 gpus showed up correctly, an other thing is that MSI afterburner detects the cards but I cant change anything. I also tested all risers and pci-e slots with only one card and everything was fine. Then I tried reinstalling display drivers (tried like 5 of them) and nothing helped. The only thing that changed is that after the last deinstall (with DDU) I cant even boot into windows, I get only a black screen after the gigabyte logo(when I disabled 4g decoding at that moment it got even stuck at the gigabyte logo). So i've read like most of the threads including this one and couldnt find an answer for my problem. I am going to return this f*cking motherboard and pick up an asus or asrock. Btw, I am running 6x rx570 8gb

what windows version you are using? Try to plug your gpu 1 by 1, don't plug your 6 gpu together in one time. after 1, shoot-down your Rig, plug the other one to the next socket......until all your card  detected all by system.

One of the best boards I ever used.

I'm using this mainboard too, it's quite stable at mining. But It easy to get trouble on boosting which might be your rig's problem (when I update window to ver.1709, this boosting problem happen again).
So in the boost section, you may try setting it to win (I dont remember exactly the options' name, but if you choose sth like P1.. it may get error).

For windows you have to disable the CSM option in BIOS.
It's a great board, rock solid.

if you enable the mining mod then it does not see the sata disk?

I was in a 24h nightmare to setup 5 GPUS with this one, I will recommend you the following:

1. Update to the last BIOS.
2. Do not use "Mining" crappy mode.
3. Setup Windows with an USB Flash Drive, use Rufus to create the bootable drive and use GTP partition to UEFI.
4. Format hard drive using GTP partition (VERY IMPORTANT). If you use MBR partitions, when 4G Decoding will be enabled you will get a big black screen at start up.
5. Setup Windows 10 Pro and drivers with up to 3 GPU (NO MORE), and with 4G Decoding Disabled.
6. Once the first 3 GPU are installed. Turn off and connect the 4th GPU an turn on, go to BIOS and enable 4G and Gen1.
7. Wait for Windows starts and configures 4th GPU. Once it is complete, turn off, and install 5th GPU, and turn on again.
8. Repeat untill 6th GPU.

For this experience, I will never buy this motherboard, Gigabyte, great mobos for gaming, for mining Asrock, Biostar and MSI.

Plug into onboard video, disable audio and serial in bios, 4G decoding off
Disconnect network cable (to prevent auto download of drivers), disable windows update service...
Use DDU under safe mode to remove all graphics drivers
Confirm in Device Manager that the video cards now show up as Microsoft Basic Video
Reboot into bios, enable 4G, save and reboot, power off (don't boot to windows)
Plug in the remaining video cards, all 6 should be plugged in now
Power up, windows will boot up and device manager will show Integrated Intel + 6 Microsoft Basic Video cards
Now install the latest video drivers...
Plug Network Cable back in

Same here.
Got 2 of them for testing and its great, a lot better than the crapy assrock BTC R2.0 boards.

RTFM https://www.gigabyte.com/microsite/462/mining.html

Hello
I have quite the same problem.
I use bios version 23a.
UEFI mode, with partition GPT.
I installed Windows 10 pro with mining mode enabled, 4G Decoding on, Gen 2 on i-can't-remember-the-option.
3 GPUs : works fine with every miner.
4 GPUs : can't get to windows, it freezes at windows startup when i the small circle is moving and windows background is displayed.

I tried to install just one GPU. Then a second, go to windows, wait for peripheral to be recognized.
Then a third one.
And at the fourth, boom.

I interchanged the RISER, same bug.
If i try to connect the molex 4P power on the motherboard (shown as PCIE_12V_1 and 2) it doesn't start.
I also tried without mining mode, with or without the IGFX as primary and internal graphic enabled or disabled.

Any ideas ?

Did you check the power consumption, what PSU? Watts?

Yes I am around 500W with a Seasonic 850W PSU.
I've found that my 4th PCIE slot is not working : as soon as i connect a riser on it (i've tried all my risers and all my graphic cards) the system freezes at windows loading (with windows background and the small circle turning around).
So I succeeded to use 4 GPUS by using only PCIE 16x, PCIE 3rd (the 2nd is blocked by the GPU on the PCIE16x), PCIE 5th and 6th. I only have 3 risers at the moment.

So i don't why but i'm unable to use the 4th PCIE slot.

if you use a gpu in the x16 slot plugged directly it may use too much pcie lanes. get another riser (they only use up x1, a gpu on the board consumes x16 lanes)

This board works without any problems for me, 6 GPUs, setting up, starting miner, runs forever

Thank you man! that really helped!

but i have a question. when should I enable the mining mode?

That might be the problem for everyone saying that this is a crappy mobo...  its so tempting to plug a card directly into the mobo instead of using a riser.

Put a riser in the x16 slot as well - if you plug a GFX card directly in, it'll try to use all 16 hardwired PCI lanes to the CPU.

After add a third card on this motherboard, the second one loses hashrate. After add the forth, the second and the third loses. The 4 cards are identicals.

Can anyone help me? What I'm missing?

What does PCIE_12V_1 do?

I'm using Windows 10 Home, this is a problem?

I have not installed the system on a UEFI partition, can this be?

https://i.imgur.com/cZDq5q5.png

I'm suspecting that is the Hynix memory RAM...

I managed to make all 6 cards mine with the correct hash. I cant use the voltage control in AB. Any sugestions?

How does this board compare to Asus B250 MINING EXPERT? Not that I can afford a bunch of GPUs. But useful information to know for the future.

My mobo detect only 3 gpu. I tryed all the speps here and cant see the 4 gpu. Device manager just dont show 4th gpu. Have win 10 pro 64bit, amd 17.6.2 drivers.
Any more ideas?

If in the device manager, you should check every section, then if I saw something like VGA, right click on it and update driver.

Bumping this thread, as I am having the same issue with 5/6 GPUs detected.  I have tried everything in the thread and still no luck.  Could it be the OS?  I am using the vanilla install of Simple Mining OS.

No, there is no new device in device manager.
But i found the problem, the ATX PSU is defective. I use server PSU and ATX PSU. But the atx gone. There are some suggestions the problem was i didnt ground psu together with same ground cable. But  dont know how to ground them? Just to connect both black wires from both PSUs?

Read this thread about 8 times when I was having a mare setting this board up with vegas. In case it helps anyone - the 16x slot seems to use resources differently to the others.

Enabling mining, Gen 2, using internal graphics brings the shorter slots online, but if you use that longer slot it hogs <something>, especially with Vegas. I had crash after crash till I swapped from using that 16x slot.

My H110-D3A wouldn't see past 5 GPU's either.

I'm running nvOC - PXA. 

It is now seeing and running 6 GPUs successfully.

This is what I did

• I upgraded the bios for mining  (not sure if there was any point?
• Disabled onboard video
• Set video to use GPU
• enabling Mining Mode just caused to jump back to BIOS settings after Save and Exit, So I left it disabled
• I enabled Above 4G
• Disabled serial and parallel ports
• Othe PCI devices = Do Not Launch
• Windows features = Other OS

Hope this may help

Do not give up. I had Asrock BTC Pro took me 2 days to figure out how to connect everything, the second one took me 1 hour to setup whole rig... Same happened to Gigabyte took me whole day the next one same as asrock only 1 hour... Just google!

this board works perfect for me, run 6 x 1070 with Ubuntu 16.04 LTS no problem at all, run very smooth and run auto pilot, no need to tweak except I change mining coin.

I am trying to install Windows 10 on this board but it always stops installing right after blue windows logo appears. Any ideas how to solve this?

A friend of mine is having the same problem. Windows 10 64, updated. All the configurations done as indicated at https://www.gigabyte.com/microsite/462/mining.html

He's only using 3 NVIDIA graphic cards but only 2 work properly. The third one doesn't even start. All the connections seem to be ok.

First he was using different powered riser cards (6 pins) and didn't worked at all and now he's using 4 pins riser cards and only 2 from 3 graphic cards are working.

Try this ... it worked for me to get all 6 cards working:

Reset the BIOS by removing the battery
Update the BIOS if you have not already (you can do this before or after the resetting)
Boot the os with 0 GPUs connected and change your BIOS settings to mining mode and use the onboard VGA (IGFX)
1 by 1 install the GPUs rebooting in between ... not sure this is necessary, but it worked for me

THis worked for me in SMOS (or linux), so I hope it works for you as well.  Basically what was happening is that there was a collision at the kernel level with this mobo trying to output video from card 1 and the IGFX because you may have booted the machine with a GPU installed int he 16x card slot.  At least that's what the system messages in the LInux OS told me.

Good luck mining ... especially after the ETH difficulty increase :-(

Hi all, I bought this MOBO yesterday and it has Bios version F23, which does not have mining mode at all. Yet al the other settings suggested from Gygabite minisite are there.
I assume since BIOS F23 is more recent than (F22) which has mining mode. With this bios it may not need mining mode at all, or is somewhat already supported.

Any though?

You might try to use the board any way. If it does not work, then flash it to F22.

Thank you!
I actually tried that already and got an error message when I attempted to flash the BIOS with F22.
Maybe was a glitch, some mistake of mine or t just does not take older BIOS.
Anyway I am going to just try as you suggested and see what happens.
I want to use it with 4 Vegas.

Cheers.

So....
My Mobo is actually H110-D3.   non A.
It has 7 PCI slots.

I have kept the F23 Bios which was already installed, so there was not Mining mode available.
I have set up the BIOS as per Gigabyte instructions on the Mining Minisite.
Then I  installed Windows 10 without problems, made all the usual Windows Mods for mining.
Installed 4 Vegas on the mobo on the first 4 slots.
Connected the monitor on 1 vega.
Started the Rig, unistalled previous drivers in safe mode which were previously installed by Windows automatically, since I had an old Nvidia 760 that I used for installing Windows 10.
Installed Blokchain driver.
Crossfire on registry was already disabled.
Applied Soft Power tables 1100 to registry.

Run Cast miner, at full hashing speed and without an itch for few hours now.

It was a very smooth process.

Cost me a few hours but Gigabyte H110-D3A mobo is working with 6x GPU (AMD RX570). using Ethos version 1.29. getting about 160Mh. You must disable onboard VGA and connect monitor to GPU0. Enable mining in bios. Then it works...

Just an update for everyone using H110-D3A MOBO.
There is a new bios vF25a on the website: https://www.gigabyte.com/MicroSite/462/mining.html (https://www.gigabyte.com/MicroSite/462/mining.html)

MOD your GPUs BIOS and at least use the following clock speeds: gpu 1150/ mem 2100.
You'll get around 175 mhs.

I just found this post and hope that someone can help me please...
My Win 10 Pro 64 doesn't want to detect any of my 4 risers in any PCI-E. Any idea???

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2946438.msg30262046#msg30262046

I got this board and at first I had some trouble getting it running properly but this was my first ever rig. Had the same issue as many other people, after loading windows it got stuck on loading screen. But that's somewhat normal, it is detecting GPUs in the meantime, give it a few seconds up to a minute instead of hitting numlock capslock or trying different method to check if PC has frozen.

I plugged 1 GPU at first and set the bios settings properly (enable 4g, mining mode, gen2 etc etc) then installed video drivers and then restarted with 1 more GPU (wait to recognise it), then restart and plug one more (wait to recognise) and so on until you plug all 6 one by one.

The only issue I'm having is it won't force the video on the integrated graphics as long as there is GPU plugged in the PCI-E slot. I enabled integrated gpu in bios and chose it as primary display output, but still nothing. It either displays through PCI-E main slot, or just doesn't display video anywhere. Bios is updated. Also I got 2nd rig recently - exactly same config and mobo - same issue.

So do you have any suggestions what might be the problem? I really don't want to have my video output on one of the GPUs as it affects performance a little bit. Recently heard it might be causing instability with higher overclock which I encountered, it's not all the time, sometimes it's stable for hours, sometimes unstable after couple of minutes. Maybe it's because of the video being on one of the GPUs?

For me works like a charm, I have two of them and no problem at all, have 6 pcs of Gv-1070 gtx on them.
Used uefi win and last bios.
try this https://www.gigabyte.com/MicroSite/462/mining.html

That's what I followed when I got it runing, but I was more focused on recognising and getting the 6 GPUs to work. I still couldn't get it to use integrated VGA instead. If I enable integrated graphics in bios and choose IGFX as primary display output, I lose both integrated and gpu and have to reset bios after that to get video signal. Have the same issue on 2nd rig with same config as I said. Doesn't seem like a deffective product.

Other than that, I use GPU0 for display, rig is working fine, mining is going well, it just bothers me that it's not right.  :-\

at the end I got it to work, I got scammed with the pack of 4 risers, received them dead :/
the mayor problem of the H110-D3A that I had, is the Mining mode that didn't want to load windows, don't remember how I solved it.

Yeah I remember going through this as well. I think I had to load windows for the first time with Mining mode off, then enabling it after installing 1st GPU with drivers. Not sure exactly what I did but didn't take me long to go through. Even now after resetting BIOS, I have no problem with detecting GPUs or loading Windows. It's just my IGPU wont display anything for me. :D

I have a problem with this MB. I Connect one gtx 1060 in the 16x slot and I can't to see video don't show anything. Someone else have this problem?

Connect your monitor cable into the motherboard! Thats the first rule of mining..
#2 I hate all Gigabyte motherboards.. I was not sleeping for 2 days straight because those stupid mobos :D

I Connect my monitor and I see image, config all parameter how this line say but when I Connect de gtx don't recognize and I can't see anything

Hi,

so i read through all this thread, got the same board and maybe a similar problem.

What do i use?:
- SMOS

What works:
-  Without any modification 5 GPU´s are being recognized out of the box

Whats the main issue:
 GPU´s in Slot 6 are not being recognized. GPU´s in M2 slot are not being recognized
2a. i had once a 650TI being recognized in Slot6 for whatsoever reason. But i could not reproduce it and it was (obviously) only a test card. (i dont use that for mining, its just laying around)

How do i try to fix the main issue:
- I replaced already riser, usb cables, power and tried with different cards. It´s not related. All works fine for itself but not as 6th card.
- Reading the conclusions of this thread i want to update the Bios. I got the latest bios ready on an USB Stick

Whats the issue to update the bios:
- I see the BIOS Gigabyte Splash screen and if i press "DEL" it stops there, but i cant get past it. Only the spash screen is displayed. I cant enter into the settings part of the bios. The monitor is attached over a VGA Cable (its an old 10" CRT which is fine for console display). Monitor is attached to GPU0 over a signal converterwhich is showing the splash screen.
If i dont press "DEL" it continues to boot (if i have the booting USB SMOS inserted) after the spash screen. If i pressed del as said it just hangs infinitely on the spash screen.

What did i try:
- I tried to reset the bios (with unplugged power cord), i tried to attach different keyboards (ps/2) but the keyboard remains responsiveness (num key) during all the process. i just cant enter inside the settings part of the bios.


Has someone an idea ? Its crazy in my  Farm i have like 0 issues with 0 ROI old low power, 4gig mem PC´s in which use 1-2 expander cards to get the them multi GPU ready. 0 issues on 6+ Card mining rigs using old underlaying hardware with enough pci lanes in combination with 1080ti´s, 1070ti´s and titanium Power supplies.

But oh irony with this dedicated piece of hardware which should work like a charm i have os far most of the issues. My goal is to run 7 GPU´s on it. 6 on the pci 1x and 1 on the M2 (using the white adapter i already installed).

Don't worry I had the same issue but after carefully reading the important steps and settings here: https://www.gigabyte.com/MicroSite/462/mining.html (https://www.gigabyte.com/MicroSite/462/mining.html) I managed to get it to work. Think the setting that caused issue was Compatibility Support Module (CSM) option. It says to have 'Disabled' but from memory I had to have it 'Enabled' before my 60GB SATAII  SSD would boot Windows.

The other important steps to follow, some already suggested were:
1. Update BIOS - latest version 25a here: https://www.gigabyte.com/Motherboard/GA-H110-D3A-rev-10#support-dl (https://www.gigabyte.com/Motherboard/GA-H110-D3A-rev-10#support-dl)
2. Change “Max Link Speed” setting from “Auto” to “Gen2” (M.I.T / Miscellaneous Settings / Max Link Speed)
3. Enable Mining Mode (Peripherals)
4. Change "Initial Display Output" setting from "PCIe Slot1" to "IGFX" (Peripherals) - initially I wasn't using on board graphics but seems best option to free up resources.
5. Change “Above 4G Decoding” setting from “Disabled" to “Enabled” if needed (Peripherals) - I have GTX 1070's with 8GB vram soof course I enabled this feature.
6. Windows Update turned off is recommended - I went one step further and ran Spybot Anti-Beacon link: https://www.safer-networking.org/2016/anti-beacon-1-6-available/ (https://www.safer-networking.org/2016/anti-beacon-1-6-available/)
7. Go to Control Panel / System and Security / Power Options and select "Choose what the power buttons do". Click "Change settings that are currently unavailable" and disable the "turn on fast startup (recommended)" function.

Also wanted to mention the ability to run a 7th riser on the M.2 slot isn't supported on this model for those considering it. Chart clearly says 6*PCI-E only. If you're considering purchasing this motherboard I can't fault it like OP, although I think like anything it takes patience and doing some research before jumping to conclusions. Here's an interesting review link: http://1stminingrig.com/gigabyte-ga-h110-d3a-review-the-new-best-motherboard-for-mining/ (http://1stminingrig.com/gigabyte-ga-h110-d3a-review-the-new-best-motherboard-for-mining/) Note down the bottom there are also comments about people overcoming similar issues. ;)

anyone managed to run 7 GPU???
the 7th running through M.2 riser

The M.2 riser unfortunately does not work for gpu only for SSD

Dang this really sucks, I just bought a bunch of M.2 -> PCI-e 4x adapters :( is this a hardware limitation or a BIOS limitation?

Hardware limitation. M.2 is sata only. Im running 8 cards on this board without any problem.  5 amd 580 8gb and 3 nvidia 1060 6gb. Mining at 225 Mh/s on claymore 11.2.

weird.... in gigabyte web said that the M.2 can be used to mine with GPU. Now that I get into the web it doesn't say

Says it quite clearly here: https://www.gigabyte.com/MicroSite/462/mining.html (https://www.gigabyte.com/MicroSite/462/mining.html)
https://i.imgur.com/8ahChRg.jpg

you are right, I didn't pay attention to the part of the numbers. If it is 7 it should say 6+1 M.2 (like the others)
Lot of people makes the same mistake asking about the 7th GPU through M.2
Good to know, thanks

Anyone with this board running with 1 to 4 pci-e adapter with success ? I am waiting for the adapter arrive to give it a try.

Yes i have tested with 2 riser 1 to 4 at same time, working 100%

You mean 1 pci-e to 4 adapter running two GPU ?

Mine 1 to 4 adapter still not arrived, but I have here a 8 pci-e adapter and can't make work till now with 8 gpu's only 7 worked so far already tried change risers, pci-e port, the machine not even do a POST bios when have 8 GPU in the adapter.

This Mainboard is so Fucking instable and has the most bugs ever. With FW 25a, as soon as i enable "mining mode" booting from USB is not possible anymore. (USB Stick disappear)
I was not able to find a Version which runs smooth with HIVEOS, i ripped that boards out of my Rigs and replaced it with H81pro BTC.

New FW 25d available.

When enable Mining Mode here same thing happen no possible to booting from USB but you can keep mining mode disable and just enable all things to mining fine, if you have time just give it one more chance.

Can you specified what's need to be enabled. I'm starting to crazy.

Whether you have mining mode enabled or not it doesn't matter. Enabling it only enables above 4g decoding and disable csm support.

If you disable csm support and didn't install windows using uefi mode then you will have issues. You don't have to enable mining mode. Just enable 4g decoding and enable csm support.

My settings are Disabled Intel virtualization, Pcie gen 1, enable 4g decoding, initial display igfx, mining mode disable, enable csm support. Unless you know you have flashed your windows 10 in uefi mode then you can go ahead and disable csm support. Make sure under csm video is uefi then save and reset and go in bios and then disable csm support.

How to flash windows 10 into your thumb drive in uefi mode, Google Rufus.

Well my settings are virtualization (VT-D) disabled, Pcie gen 2 (need due using pci-e to 8 pci-e port adapter but you can try pci gen 1 or 3 to see what be OK in your setup here and the most setups all worked fine with pci gen 2), 4G decoding enabled, IGFX disabled (due 8 x pci-e adapter don't work all 8 ports if internal graphics are enabled), mining mode disable, csm support Enable to be compatible boot from usb etc

I really like this board, easy setting and the price is very cheap in my country. Bios Version F21 (so i don't have mining mode option on my Bios)
I had 1x GTX1080Ti and 5x GTX1070, running well on this Board. My bios setting max link speed : Gen2, Initial Display Output : IGFX, Above 4G Decoding : Enabled.
I'm running windows 10 Pro 64 on Legacy Mode  :D and so far so good

hey! did you just ignore pci16 slot on the mobo? or you used riser for that? or?

This board is driving me nuts! I had big problems getting just 2x ZOTAC 1080GTX to run,but managed in the end by putting them in specific PCI slots. Now I have a extra 4 cards, but I never get more than 4 recognized (most of the time I get just 3).

Tried all the tips, running latest F25 BIOS. I need to enable CSM or my SSD will not boot on the SATA port.

Will sell the full rig out of frustration soon, but before I do, any final clues?

Help rewarded....

Yes, works nice, managed to start 8 pieces of  Rx-580. Only needed to reinstall drivers.

Right now you just using one adapter 1x to 4 pci-e and using 4x pci-e from the board or using two adapter 1x to 4x pci-e ? Any speed issues or have same speed like RX 580 are directly connected to the board ?

At this moment I have one 1x4 adapter with 3 GPU, dont see any substential difference from other 5 GPU connected on MB, they all are from 30-31 MH/s.  I use adapter for 7-8 days, and it works nice , ordered only 1pt to see how it works

I am waiting for this type of adapter 1x4 (pci-e 1x card) arrive but I am running now with 1 x 8 pci-e adapter (pci-e 16x card) and running some old amd cards (8x R7 370 2GB models), I just wanna know if add one or maybe two adapter 1x4 pci-e can running this motherboard with more GPU, like you I am just wanna see how it works all together.

SOLVED IT!!

I am running a mining farm. I did not have the problem with 6x MSI RX580, not with 6x Gigabyte 1070 but I did have it with Asus RX580. I was running with 4GB memory. I just add 4GB extra memory and this solved the problem. It's as simple as that.

Hi, your problem same like me.
If you enable 'mining mode" your boot option priorities "blank". your HDD gone, right ?
it maybe your HDD is sata hdd, if you change to SSD or M2 sata , sure you get it in boot option priorities.
because sata hdd maybe cannot detect in UEFI mode.

i switch SSD , then OK. hope can solved your problem.

My Board running 7 Nvidia GPU with 1x4 pcie adapter (5 gpu on MB and 2 gpu on adapter), sometimes my rig got BSOD (TDR failure) and the other times, everything look fine. But if only 6 GPU connected, it's running well without any issue (4 GPU on MB and 2 GPU on adapter or 6 GPU all in MB)

How much GPU can be run by this board smoothly, with 1 or 2 (1x4Pci-e adapter) ??

I made maximum to work 5+4 VGA ( RX580 Nitro+), 4 on 1x4 pcie adapter. But I have another  adapter witch made me trouble, BSOD restarts blocks ...  same model as first, probably bad product. Works few hours and then start to play with my nervs  :'(   

The maximum here for this motherboard is 12 GPU using 8 pci-e adapter when I try with 13th GPU the motherboard don't boot, just power ON spinning fans and POWER OFF and then POWER ON again and repeat.

it's look alike promising motherboard with 12 GPU running on system ... i will try this way, and hope everything can go smoothly.

Did you mixed nvidia and amd on your rig ??

12 cards are working fine for me.

what model of adapter you use ? manufaturer ?

I don't have nvidia at this time only old amd cards to test. I hope soon have some nvidia to mix/test.



I purchased from Aliexpress looking from the pictures are the same, but I can't be sure, from lspci in linux I got this:

PCI bridge: PLX Technology, Inc. PEX 8614 12-lane, 12-Port PCI Express Gen 2 (5.0 GT/s) Switch (rev ba)

The PEX 8614 is chipset I think.

When setting up the GA-H110 Installed the CPU and fan, plugged the GPU into the board for a startoff, got into bios fine and set the Gpu to pcie slot 1, turned on mining mode rebooted and it went into windows fine. I thought everything is ok..
Then turned off and put the gigabyte 1060 Gpu that was in the board onto a VER 009S powered riser.
Everything is on a single EVGA 1000 psu.
Rebooted and the CPU fan spun once then stopped and no post or boot.
Took the GPU out of the riser and plugged it directly into the M/b again.
Tried to boot again but its dead, no CPU fan starting, nothing - dead..

Any ideas on if I can reset the m/b, Have taken the battery out and shorted the cmos pins but still nothing.
The only thing that was different was it went onto a riser then M/B dead after that.

You fried the mobo and cpu by connecting the riser, either that or its the powersupply

Yeah it was bad risers. VER 009s they were.
I got some of the ones I normally use today - VER 006c.
Another new mobo put them in as powered risers and works straight away. Its Mining now..
It was definatly the risers and they were installed as all the others I've done.
CPU and PSU were fine.

Have one of these and running version 25 of the bios. When Mining Mode is set, I don't get past this either. I just stopping selecting mining mode and all works "ok". Have issues getting this board to see 1070ti's with risers, but it does in the long PCI slot.

I have 3 of these boards and couldn't get the 6th GPU to work in Windows...struggled with this for a couple days until I saw your post. The BOIS settings you recommend did the trick, thanks for this!

Did you solve your issues? I am having the same thing. 4 x RX580 are working fine. When I put the fifth after some time I got BSOD with video_tdr_failure and then the fifth disapears. I am trying to solve this more then a week now.

I tried pcie 1gen, 2gen, 4G enabled, other os, igpu primary enabled, vt disabled, audio disabled, you name it ...

PSU is Corsair HX1000i, 6 x risers x1 with 6-pin to SATA, 8GB RAM, 18000-50000 GB virtual RAM, claymore's latest 12.0, latest adrenalin drivers, latest Win10 updates. GPU's RX580 with Samsung memory and one micron with gpu undervolt with cca 80W chip power output and memory overclocked, no memory errors in hwinfo, bios is the latest v25 ...

One more thing, I connected wires to power pins to turn the machine on. AC power is on enabled. However, when I turn it off on the PSU switch and turn the switch on it doesn't start automaticaly. I have to short connect the wires from power pins. What am I doing wrong to be able to turn it on without connecting power wires?

Dear miners to reply this i registerd to forum
Because i read this all and i will say to you guys why you not telling the secret?instead telling 1 or 2 word you can help if you are really want to do that.
Ok let me put it right with this mobo.mobo is ok doing it is job.Big secret is CONNECT 12V TO MOBO BOTH OF THEM MUST BE CONNECTED to PSU other wise you will have problems.maybe gigabyte economy on pcb and didnt take care good supply from 24pin.
After that you can you mining mod enabled or disabled it doent matter, you must configure correct what you will use.onbord video or pci 1 video.choose what you need and start mining freely.and connect your monitor onboard or pci1 which you prefer and dont tell there is no video.
Good luck and thank you

Try this bios setup

- Peripherals >> Initial Display Output >> IGFX
- Peripherals >> Above 4G Decoding >> Enabled
- M.I.T >> Max Link Speed >> Gen2
- Chipset >> Internal Graphics >> Enabled

Then you need to plug the display (monitor) cable to Onboard graphics port and don't forget to connect the PSU's Molex (4-Pin) power cable to both PCI-E power connectors on the motherboard.

I just connected to this mobo a PCI-E 1 to 4 splitter to the PCI-E 16X slot and anything works right.
I have done the mods into the bios, such as mining mode, Gen2, 4X bus enable etc..
Now i added another gpu, using the 1 to 4 splitter in HiveOs and i'm mining by days with no issues.
I think this mobo can handle up to 11 or 12 or more gpus, using these splitters also in the 1X riser slots, at least in HiveOs.

any tips for using pcie splitters 1x4 x ones? i will built 12 gpu setup with 2 pcix 1x4 ones.Which slots should i use ?
