I have a MSI Z170A Xpower gaming Titanium Edition mobo with 7 pcie slots, could only get 3 cards to run it, any ideas?
Have ASRock H97 Anniversary LGA 1150 as well running 6 290's and Asrock B150A-X1 with 5 slots, but can only get 4 390's to run on it.
I've gotten two b150a-x1 to work with 5 cards, you need to set pcie to gen2 for all slots and alocate 3.5gb resources to vgas in bios. Also, disable sound from bios, else you might get no resources available.
Last 2 gpu's arrived today and got 5 cards running on b150a-x1. Thank you plenty much christiano88!
