Hello,
I wonder if anyone could help me out here please.
I just purchased the ASRock Z97 OC mb. It posted just fine with one Sapphire AMD R9 270X Dual-x graphics card. It was located in the first PCI slot (next to memory/cpu). I then added a 2nd (all the same Sapphires) one in. It also works fine. I went to add the 3rd one into the 3rd slot and I get a great error message as it tries to boot up. The error # is 64 on the lcd readout on the MB. Note: I also tried the 4th slot and got the same error.
The picture (yes a picture) is an old style MB letting me know I need to connect the 4 pin PSU to the MB. Says, that's why it's not working. It's a great error message and it's animated :) Unfortunately it doesn't help me out:( I thought perhaps it was a bad cable from my power supply or bad Sapphire graphics card. I switched all three around including the power cables. All 3 graphics cards and cables worked in slots 1 & 2. And yes, the other two 4pin power cables that need to go to the MB are in fact plugged in too.
I loaded the 1.10 bios into the BIOS. That worked fine, no difference unfortunately. Just a side note, I tried Xfire on 1 & 2 with 3rd one in place and 1 & 3 with the 2nd one in place, didn't help. Having the 3rd one always gave me an error. Any ideas?
Thanks in advance:
Gunzo
Update: The R9 270x only has one XFire connector (280x has 2). Make a diff?
Setup: ASRock z97 OC Formula MB, 32GB Ram, 512GB Samsung SSD, 3x Sapphire R9 270x Dual-x
