For those waiting on the info for the MSI Z170A M5 Gaming board and 7x GPU support I finally have it working on both of my boards.
1) Make sure you're running the latest BIOS!
2) Enable 4G
3) Set PCIe support to "Auto" - DO NOT MANUALLY SET TO GEN1. THIS CAUSES MAJOR ISSUES
4) Enable onboard graphics startup as first! I believe this is changing "PEG" to "IGD" or something in the Advanced BIOS
5) Plug your monitor into the ONBOARD graphics
6) Use either simpleminer-RX-v1093-4.11.rc8-16.60-enableexe0ANDips0.imgc or simpleminer-RX-v1093-4.11.rc8-16.60-enablerc60.imgc (sorry, I don't remember which I used!)
My 14x GPUs have been stable all night long!
So glad someone figured it out! Really appreciate it.
Is there any chance you remember which version worked? I'm about to make a bunch of smos SSDs for myself and I'd hate to have to do it all over again when I start adding 3 more cards to my 4 card gaming m5 rigs in a week or two.
Is it just my feeling or are they starting to spoil the version? Is it not enough to upload the version from the main page? I have the MSI Z270-A PRO ordered, will it work or do I need a special edition? How will updates work with these versions?
