I have the same mobo, i had the same error on windows 10. 4x 1070ti connected to the mobo windows only could use 3 of them, I found a makeshift bios from asrock for 4g option. It did not fix it either. The only fix I could find is just ditching the windows all together and install linux. I have all GPUs working now. For testing I also added another card it can use 5x GPUs without problem.

I'm also from Turkey, I'm building my first rig right now. I thought about going for rx vega 64(it has the same price with rx vega 56 for some reason in turkey). But in the end I'm buying 4x 1070TI instead of 3x vega64s. The reason is; it is just better for future. It has better resell value, it can mine different algos better, it is basically plug and mine with some OC and power limiting on afterburner.

Monero mining with rx vega is insanely profitable atm but you never know whats going to happen so I like to have more options just in case. Also as a gamer I prefer nvidia over amd and I might use one or two of those cards on my gaming rig if everything else fails.

hey man, thanks! I put my ideas into a spreadsheet and did some calculations. getting 4 GTX 1070 Ti s gives me the same performance as 6 GTX 1060s with less power and for the same price. Looks like I am also going to get 4 of them. Which one did you go for? and also from which Turkish retailer?

I bought them from Inventus Türkiye , they are really good with their customer service. I got MSI GTX1070TI Aero, its one of the most basic models and the price is same with GTX1070 models but since the power need of 1070TI is really low with some adjustments I thought I would not need some fancy 3 fan card. I talked to them today and I think they still have more in their stocks.

1080TI in turkey is ridiculously expensive, it starts around 1100 USD(4300 TL). I would not recommend it, ROI would take soo much more time with them. Maybe if you can find some used ones that might work though.

This happened to me once with my gaming rig when there was a sudden blackout during a storm(common occurrence in turkey). A surge in voltage can cause hardware damage if you do not have surge protector. I now use UPS to protect all my hardware, If there is a high voltage spike they will probably take the hit and shut off. Its been 2 years and nothing is damaged again yet.

Maybe something is causing voltage fluctuation in your house?
