ASUS PRIME Z270-A (7x gpu: 9x if you use 2x m2 adapters) Link

does not work with 9 GPUs even though it has 2x m2 slots

unless someone knows some magical trick?

Did you change the bios settings as directed by the OP?

If you are using an ASUS PRIME Z270-A;

ensure 'Above 4G Decoding' is enabled in the bios.

Also ensure PTP aware OS: is set to 'Not PTP Aware' in the bios.

Finally, ensure you 'Clear Secure Boot Keys' in the bios.

I am running 5 of these boards and do not have any issues. This board appears to have the most PCI lane management features I have ever seen on a motherboard. Be sure your M.2 slots are configured for PCI and not SATA. Also, if you are using a SSD/HDD for nvOC, be sure you are not using a SATA slot that might be conflicting with the M.2 slot. There is a chart for this in the mobo manual. My 2 cents.
