Hey everyone im trying to get 12 gpus onto a Z690 … i can get 7 to work but anything past that and the system wont boot … any advice would be greatly appreciated!
Doubtful, Z690 supports 28 PCIE lanes.
yes
May I ask as to why
I’m gonna guess mining.
12 GPUs? What?
Uh, do you have some kind of plx set up or……no bifurcation on z690 except x8/x8
Who gave you the resources to let you plan out this system…
If this is for mining, son your ROI is gonna be crap I can tell you bought the most cost inefficient stuff possible cause you have a z690 board. Sacrificing 1 GPU to buy a proper platform would have allowed for them all to fit (atleast for the system to post with PCIe layout != to intel intended usecase)
If this is for compute/AI, again who gave you the money or why did you go ahead and blow that money on a bunch of relatively random hardware.
