Sabertooth z87 and 6 280x

I only get the os to recognize 4 gpus, not sure if I need to jump some pci-e pins or not, or maybe I’m missing something else.

Hi, anyone gotten this to work? I’m using Win 8 currently…trying to avoid bamt since I want a 64 bit os for cpu mining and easier to setup monitoring and remote control (can’t setup port forward with my isp)

are you using powered or unpowered pcie risers? i ask because some people have had luck getting their gpus to recognize with powered risers and not having to jump the pcie port with a wire.

Thanks, I read a guide there…before trying this.

I’m using powered risers. Maybe I lack the correct chipset drivers to enable the two pci-e 2.0 slots that don’t feed off the cpu?
I did install a chipset driver but it didn’t help.

Gonna try bamt 1.2 tomorrow and see if ti runs.
