@asus @ASUSUSA Just got off Asus Support and they confirmed 13x is MAX on B250 Mining Expert until BIOS update in 4Q. Case ID#
N171017058"

Having the same issue. Can't get past 13 GPUs. ASUS support says that to get more than 13 we need to use mining cards. Can someone confirm this?

Thanks

I run my rig on Ubuntu 16.04.

I put 13 general purpose gpus (rx570 580, 1060 1070) on the board and it runs perfect.
However, if I put the 14th general purpose gpu, I got POST fail.

If I put 3 more mining gpus to 16 cards (13 general purpose gpus + 3 mining gpus), runs smoothly.

But I have no idea if Ubuntu supports more than 16 gpus.

I have this card running with 10amd 580s, stable and mining zec at 3KH/s.    Just picked up 3 more xfx cards to add to it after I get drivers installed.   Hoping they release the update to add the remaining 6 cards.   I don't want to mix the Nvidia cards as simple mining doesn't allow that.   But for now I'm up and running smoothly.  Anyone have info on the update?
