I´m using an Asrock H81M. Both 5V Power Plugs are connected..
1) Asrock H81M is a miniATX board, and has only two PCIe slots, so no, that is not the board that you are using. What you have could be the Asrock H81 ProBTC or Asrock H81 ProBTC V2 2) Those arent 5V plugs, they are molex power plugs which can draw upto 12V. And you should not have them plugged in when using RX 470/480 cards. 3) Again, go through the forum threads, every answer you need already exists there. Please have the patience to read through hundreds of pages and try 10's of settings, we all did it. Yes, sure, you are right. H81 BTC Pro 2.0. And in the documentation was a comment, when using more then 3 Video Cards, you have to plugg in at min, one Molex Power connector, but better both. So i thought, i have to. Please believe me. I´m doing nothing else, then reading. I´m sick at home and i´ve a lot of time.But i also have a lot of qustions.. But you gave me hope, that there is a solution for my issue:-) Regards, Rosi Are u using powered usb risers? If you are please UNPLUG the 4-pin connector that goes from your PSU to your mobo before u fry anything... If you are NOT using powered usb risers then ok keep the 4-pin molex in He's not going to - please stop giving bad advice. Powered USB risers are cut - they don't connect the power from the mobo to the GPU. That's not what i said I never said he will fry the GPU But he CAN fry the risers Using an Asrock h81 pro btc with powered risers PLUS 4-pin molex connectors is an overkill Giving too much power to the mobo (main mobo cable plus 4-pin molex) when it's not needed is not good You HAVE to give the mobo that 4-pin, or it won't work with all PCI-E slots filled. Plus, having the extra power is NOT going to fry the risers. Power doesn't work like that. OK then i will TAKE A PHOTO of ALL my rigs that have x6 GPU's (ALL 6 PCI-E slots filled) mainly 480's (i have other setups also) WITHOUT any molex 4-pin connected that work perfectly for months and post it here...(after i get home that is) PS. I am using ethOS but Windows 10 works as good without problems |

The H81 ProBTC I remember had issues with 6 cards, but the V2 fiexs that problem. You do not need the molex connectors on the board at all, unless using unpowered Risers and non RX 470/480 cards. both of which no newbie ever uses. |

They both work with x6 RX 480's with no problems |

Hi together,
i tried both. With both Molex connected and without. Result was the same. I bought a new H81 Board.. There must be something
wrong with the other. And i can´t find anything regarding to this issue in the net.
Thats so sick. I have installed them one by one. OS is identifiing each card. Then plugg in the 5. and the error message appaers. Driver could not installed. Then i unplugg one of the 4 others and reboot, and the os is finding the card and can install the driver. When i then re-plugg in the other one again, that worked before, i got the same error for this card. Driver installation failed. I can do that with any of the 5 cards. All are working fine. As long they are only 4.
I´ll see, when the new board has arrived.
Regards,
Scandalrosi

OOK.. I got it.. What a nightmare. Just to let you know. From Version 13.12 on AMD has changed some entrys in their driver, related to the registry. The result of this change is in some Asrock H81 BTC Pro R2.0 and Asrock H81 BTC Pro, it is not possible run more then 4, or 5 GPUs. There is a verry good, working fix available. Here is a good tutorial and all you need to fix it. https://lbr.id.lv/coin/6xgpu/13-12_mod-v3_README.htmlRegards, Scandalrosi |

They could have switched to a serial power design...last time i talked to them their first batch of miners were parallel based design (ie about 4-5 chips per DC-DC power buck) in order to reduce time to market, and they were going to switch to serial later on(string of chips running off 12v like bitmain). If they did that in their new batch they could possibly gain 10-15% in power efficiency.

About that molex thing....I have just one H97 that demands it at boot, and others that do not. doesnt change anything to have one molex connector on it, as far as I can tell, it doesnt really draw much power at all. Been running over a year like this, no problemo.

My H97 won't start unless I have the MOLEX connected. Never seen that before but this is a brand new rig.
Having some random shutting down though.
My H81 BTC-PRO v1 doesn't need anything connected.

Tried to run the latest (?) version 9.7 of Claymore's CryptoNote GPU Miner on Windows 7. The error I got is: Cards available: 0
No cards in the list! clinfo also lists no cards. I have RX 480 with Crimson-16.9.1 driver, no overclocking. Can it be related to the fact that I have the display connected to another card (with D-Sub VGA output)? |
