The board should work with smos. All the riser free mobos from china really suck with windows.

the six pin are designed to clean up wiring.

1in 1out
2in 2out
3in 3out
4in 4out
5in 5out
6in 6out.

the in comes from your psu the out goes to gpu.

these are server based

not atx based.

I have a few

running with smos.

windows will drive you nuts 🥜

THANKS PHIL!  Yeah, apparently Windows is driving me nuts with this board.  Please be patient with me, as some of your response is unclear to a noob such as myself.

Is it too much to ask for a photo of one of you boards (a BTC-37) and how it's wired?  I am hoping that would clear up a lot.

-----Do I run (2) PSU's -- (1) ATX power supply to power motherboard (24 pin connector), and power in each of the 6pin connectors along the edge of the board (labeled 16X_1-8_PWR)....... and a Server PSU with a breakout board to power each GPU (the 8pin connectors on top of each GPU)?
-----To run a single 1070, do all the 6 pin connectors need to be powered?

Again, any photo's of how yours are setup/wired would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks  Smiley
