1  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: BTC Reward for Tech Support: FAIL to POST to BIOS, Can't Exceed 3 GPUs on: January 03, 2018, 06:16:51 AM
Enable "Above 4g Encoding" in BIOS and set PCI-E to Gen 1.

BTC Winner Winner Chicken Dinner. BTC

Although I already knew about this fix I couldn't find the setting in the BIOS and gave up  Undecided . You prompted me to scour for it. Found it. Turned it on. Cards Work.

Please message me the address you want the mining to go towards.

Willing to offer 24 hours of mining time directly to a BTC wallet for help resolving my GPU issue. My rig with 3 GTX 1070ti is averaging .0013 BTC per 24 Hours on zpool profit switching.

Has anyone run into Fail to POST to BIOS (Let alone Windows). I am using Awesome Miner. The issue I am facing occurs after adding more than 3 Cards to my Miner. 4 or more cards results in failure to POST. I intend to buy a few more RIG's worth of parts based off Angry Chicken's specs here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ad5ZqwR-d-0 but, I want to ensure it will work prior to committing to further capital investment.

I have tried adding the cards in different orders to see if it changes the FAIL to POST to BIOS. I have checked each Riser to ensure its not a bad riser. I have checked everyslot on the board for proper function as well. None of these variables seem to affect the failure to POST which leads me to believe there is a hardware issue/limitation. Does the RAM or CPU determine how many GPUs I can run off Risers?  Using Risers ver6 with Molex.
