I am using a 16GB kingston USB3.0 stick with Hive OS on it and it works great. The 3 molexes on the MB are not connected, I have powered risers (2 per cable coming from the PSU).
Risers are something fishy, sometimes have to switch either cables or power them from another PSU until everything runs fine. If they have an issue with power the MB shows multiple slots in red, its just figuring out which one to change PSU then and everything is green again.
Which version riser are you using? I use strictly 006c ver and oddly have never even gotten a bad one, yet. I strictly use 120gb ssd, they are $48. I run win 10 Pro, updated to 1709 and Asus bios ver 1001. The 3 molexes are NOT connected on my m/b. I have two sticks of 4gb memory pc2133. Intel G3920 Cpu on Rig1 m/b and G3930 Cpu on Rig2. I also use the 006c version, everything is stable with them once they are connected properly. I have a bunch of 008s available now so i can test them once i get more GPU. The issue with those 008s is that the USB connector is pointing in the wrong direction for a B250. I run with 1 piece of Kingston 4gb DDR4 memory and G3900 CPU.

Using amd 18.2.3 driver (newest beta). Using 006c risers. GPU and riser share the same cable - 8pin to 8pin/6+2pin (8pin to gpu and 6+2 on riser)

Any idea where I can find in europe some p106 ? ( 6....)
Or I need to source in Asia ? I did find some there but they are MSI and not Asus.
Will they work ?

When we do not have to mix cards, these motherboards will really shine. It is a tuning/driver nightmare for me when I have to mix cards.

Can you tell me what GPU you use and what hashrate coz this drives drop the hashrate not like block chain

Guys, your OS (Windows, Linux, whatever) is recognizing the integrated graphics from CPU without monitor plugged in? If yes, what is your settings? I tried with Strandby render Enable/Disable but cant see it, only when i plug the monitor in. Its strage, because when i remotely connect to the rig then the first mining card is using for that and the remote connection is slow/hash-rate is dropping.
Thanks.

I also use the 006c version, everything is stable with them once they are connected properly. I have a bunch of 008s available now so i can test them once i get more GPU. The issue with those 008s is that the USB connector is pointing in the wrong direction for a B250. There are 008 risers with straight-out type connectors, but they DO seem to prefer those right-angle things that don't work in most of the slots on this MB. I've had fewer issues with 008 risers to date than 006c, but my sample size on both sides is pretty small. Getting the integrated iGPU on an Intel APU to work with anything else under LINUX - forget it, the drivers don't play together. Under Windows, it's trivial-easy - but I always have a monitor plugged in, or a KVM switch, to that connector. Perhaps try putting a dummy plug on the connector for remote access use?

Recognized on one rig but not the two other. Dont know whats causing it. Will get the dummy plug soon.

13 is a hard-coded limit in the BIOS of this MB for use with "non-mining" type cards. I've never figured out WHY the limit exists though, as I can't see any reason for it.
I changed my mind about MY board though - it just got rebuilt into a 7-card (though some are SMALL OLDER cards, 1050 and a pair of 950) "high power slot" rig for my Mark 2 shelf/rack design. Was going to use one of my EVGA G2 1300 to power it, but I ran out of molex chains to run risers with so I ended up having to use one of my Seasonic X1250 instead.

Hello All. I found this thread really useful while getting my rig up and running - apart from the guys that dont RTFM clogging up the thread! In order to help people out who are looking to use both Nvidia and AMD cards, I have been trying different configurations and noting down if they work or not. Below you will see my findings so far. Hopefully this is helpful to people wishing to do the same. Using the final (6 x 1060, 6 x 580) configuration my rig has run for about 12hrs without any issues. Hashrates will of course depend on OC (Nvidia) OC + BIOS Mod (AMD), so I will save this info for another post. Note that before running HiveOS, I attempted to boot to xUbuntu and Linut Mint but had lots of lock-up issues with the Xserver was starting. Rig Specs:Asus B250 Mining Expert 4GB RAM Pentium i3 7100 HiveOS v0.5-32 Nvidia Asus GTX 1060 6GB Strix OC AMD MSI Rx580 Armor 8GB OC Risers all powered v008S Key:N = Nvidia Card A = AMD Card - = No slot (just one PCIe x 16) x = Empty Slot Slot Map:A01 A02 A03 PCIEx16_A1 A04 A05 A06 B07 B08 B09 B10 B11 B12 Working configurations:# 6 x 1060, 5 x 580 N N N N - - N x N x A A A A A N N N N - - N x N A A A x A A N N N N - - N N A x x A A A A N N N N - - N N A A A A x x A # 6 x 1060, 6 x 580 N N N N - - N N A A A A A A x

Thanks for the summary, this is useful. Quick question: when you wrote "power all gpu and risers from vga slots", did you mean you do not run separate power to each PCI riser? Do you power the risers by connecting cables to the 3 x molex connectors on the motherboard instead?

My current configuration (all Nvidia) is
NN- N --- (blocked by the on-board 950) N-- N-- N-- N--
Yes, 7 cards and one PS is a waste of the MB to a degree - but since I already HAVE it and it's working, not using it would have been a bigger waste.

It is not always a waste of MBO, it all depends for how much you actually bought the motherboard. I have mange to get this motherboard for price that is almost the same only slightly above the regular Asus boards that people are buying. Sometimes is wise to pay little bit more to be a future proof.

Sometimes is wise to pay little bit more to be a future proof. It cost me about double what most of the motherboards I have cost, so there's a little waste there - but it's spent money so not a waste that's going to bother me. 9-) The X1250 PS on it is definitely NOT a waste, as it's running close to the 80% of capacity figure I normally target. 9-)
