Hello,

I have this motherboard and is working ok with 6 cards, but I have extra 5 cards and the prices of the motherboards that support 12/13 gpus are pretty high right now, so I bought an PCIE extension. The issue is that when I plug the risers in the multiplier, the cards are not detected, but if I plug an usb stick, it works fine. Is because of the motherboard?

Thanks
lol its pcie to usb 3.0 not pcie multiplier for pcie, you cannot use this for pcie riser, you're wrong bought this stuff, pcie multiplier quite expensive around 1/3 from mobo that has 12 pcie, so i think better you sell the mobo and buy new one with 12+ pcie and not causing any problem in the future

You couldnt be more incorrect if you tried.

Go look at 12 gpu mining board.  Now if available most are $300+
The little plx is $20-30 bepending on where tou get it from. 
Oh and they work...probably outta look at that too. 

The only part you got right was the USB3.0 part but i corrected OP and advised him on that as well.  Anyways i wont rag on ya...hell ive skipped through threads and made a heel of myselfe before as well 😂
