    PCIE Bifurcation

    Update: I got a new UEFI from ASRock (3.64L) which finally allows both GTX1080's to work under Windows 10! I have been using the system for 2 days now and appears to be rock solid.

    Nope, it's not a power delivery problem nor a signal problem - I am able to run caffe (or folding@home) under Linux for hours with both GTX1080 GPUs pegged at 100%, and the CPU too ;-). Am using the Amerirack PCie v3 version of their x8x8 riser - the only one that works as far as I can tell...

Wrt the bios, I needed it because once I switched over to a 6800k from...

    PCIE Bifurcation

    Hi guys, long time lurker here too. Asrock just provided me with firmware 1.50a which basically enables PCIe bifurcation (together with 16GB UDIMM support) so I was able to play around testing the amerirack v3 splitter chemist_slime has been talking about earlier in the thread. Only spent a...
