Hello everyone,
currently Im running my first rig with 5x MSI rx 470 8gb (Micron). They get only around 119MH/s on Ethereum even though I flashed the BIOS.
Now Im sitting on a 6th GPU, the Powercolor 480 8gb Red Devil(Samsung).
When I connected the Red Devil onto my 6th GPU slot (Mainboard: MSI Z270 GAMING PLUS

booted my rig up and just received major graphic issues, a crash and was not able to boot into windows anymore. So I installed windows 10 again and was able to recover the rig running with the 5 GPUs.
On a seperate system I now connected the Red Devil and the card seems to be working fine.
I cant really make any idea what was the problem.. Maybe because the other cards were 470s and the new one has problems with the drivers? Maybe because I have put it into the 6th GPU slot? since Ive read that many Mainboards seem to have trouble when connected to multiple GPU.
Before I will destroy my windows again i would like to know if anyone knows this issue or has an idea what could have happened
maybe it is not possible to run those simultaniously anyways?
Cheers guys
