I'll look through the bios again. This isn't a big deal for the OS, I just load the vfio driver for the card I don't want and OS just acts like it isn't there. The bios really wants to use that card though, and it thinks there is a monitor because of the dummy plug. I guess whenever I need to...

C_Payne What would it take to get something like the dan-case/ghost bifurcation adapter but with the slots switched, my motherboard doesn't support configuring which slot is primary. (https://peine-braun.net/shop/index.php?route=product/product&path=65_59&product_id=87) Should I just open an...

EVGA was once again so close but missed the mark imo. Red accents on an RGB focused card? A cooler without tabs would be great for deshrouding, then added heatsinks that hang over the edges... A watercooled card with single slot IO, that isn't single slot.... seriously, what the heck...

Let me rephrase this, I have to have a dummy plug plugged into that card, therefore the bios sees it as a gpu with a display. The bios setting to select the card, just offers "Slot 1" there is nothing to change. However I will try those other settings though, when I refill the loop this...

From everything I can tell online.... No, the asus impact board does not. And historically Asus refuses to support bifurcation on their itx (and now dtx) boards. When asked on social media or at conventions they have either given me the run around or flat out ignore the question. Asus may...

C_Payne you may want to make a note on your "x8x8 left turn 1-Slot rev10" riser that the lower slot will be viewed as the primary. Even though my Gigabyte x570 itx motherboard has the setting to choose which is the primary GPU it only offers "Slot 1" even when bifurcation is enabled. (I have...

Not that I can/should afford it now, but this basically means you have a working oculink -> 4x adapter. So theoretically I could get that Asrock x570 server board and break to oculink out to a 4x slot like I've dreamed? Again, not that I should, but maybe after Covid stuff settles a little...

I still want to know if the Oculink can be broken out to 4x PCIe or if it's just SATA. Edit: Only one M.2 makes me sad

From what I recall, SLI has to be certified by the motherboard to work. Motherboards have to be submitted to Nvidia for certification and then can have it allowed. ITX boards make little to no sense to justify certification so they do NOT support SLI. HOWEVER, there are instances of people...

Here's the link to the specs of the board: https://www.asrockrack.com/general/productdetail.asp?Model=X570D4I-2T#Specifications And I love the board, but wish it had a second M.2 on the back (back side for selfish sandwich case related reasons, even though it's impractical for server...

I have no idea what I'd do with it, but I want one lol. I want almost everything you make... but so far I've only bought one riser from you. Keep up the amazing work. Still working on finishing up my case I made that's using your other riser. I think you'd be proud.

That is amazing, what are the performance penalties of doing something like this instead of bifurcation? I assume everything is just going to have to share bandwidth but if the devices aren't getting hit simultaneously then each could receive their full bandwidth?

btw if you want to skip a step in M.2 -> ribboned 4x slot you could get this: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32860198563.html?spm=a2g0s.9042311.0.0.78db4c4djZarSS

I have used several M.2 to PCIe 4x risers, they tend to work quite well in my experience. I'm curious how that whole setup will work. Please let us know.

C_Payne this is what I'm working on with your riser: Yes I'm also running an M.2 to PCIe 4x slot.
