Hey man
I've got a 6 card rig.
I had a bit of a nightmare getting it all running but after a bit of research I finally got it figured out.
I use a Biostar tb250 btc pro motherboard
6 x sapphire rx vega 64's
2 x 120gb ssd drives
6 x pcie risers
corsair hx1200 & hx1000 PSU's
8gb corsair Ram
G4400 CPU (as it has igfx)
To get everything to work stable I had to do the following;
1. setup the rig without the vega's in it
2. install windows & reboot
3. install motherboard drivers & reboot
4. set my bios to use igfx as primary display drivers & reboot
5. set virtual memory to 110gb (basically use 1 ssd as vram) & reboot
6. connect all vega cards
7. Install blockchain drivers & reboot
8. configure my overclocking / undervolting
9. setup the miner
10. mine
I found that when I used less that 16gb of virtual memory for each card in the rig it would mine for a few hours and then freeze, after some looking around I found a few guys who told me about the 16gb per card virtual memory setting and it's run stable ever since.
Hop this helps man

I got the sane motherboard just to clear my misconception that the right settings are just not present in my MSI H270A Pro Motherboard. Got a similar one like yours except it isn't the pro version with 12 GPU slots. Mine is the Biostar TB250 mining.
Even after following your exact steps it still couldn't detect 5-6 GPU's. It would only stick to 4 Vega's no matter i keep PCI Gen to Auto , 1, 2 or 3.
Instead of 4 decoding Biostar has the option called "MINING MODE", kept that enabled too still no luck. Tried updating the BIOS still i failed. Any more suggestions because now im stuck with a huge investment amount and no profits i have made
