    New Chinese PCIE Switch Board GPU Testing

    Small update on my end: I received a new adapter for the same seller and this one works with my board. It seems like the board required a pcie insertion detection function (from what the seller told me), and none of the adapter I had have this. I've attached photos of the board and adapter...

    New Chinese PCIE Switch Board GPU Testing

    Do you mean using a slimsas to mcio cable and the mcio gen 5 adapters? I might consider it if the new adapter from the switch seller (one which should have the pcie detection working) doesn't work. From the looks of it, it would be around 100 euro for each gpu though (30x2 for cables and 45-50...

    This is also what the seller was suggesting, that the pcie detection doesn't work on the adapter card. They said the board I have requires that to work. I have one board on the way from them, so I'll see if it works soon. As foir the boards I already have, I have 3 but they are all the same (3...

    That was my plan if I couldn't figure out what's the root cause or if the seller couldn't help.

    New Chinese PCIE Switch Board GPU Testing

    Not sure if you've seen the previous message or not. It went to moderation because I edited it to add a link for the cables I have. The board I have doesn't have the dip switch unfortunately. The prices for these cards went up a fair bit, and it would've been 150-200 euros extra for one with the...

    New Chinese PCIE Switch Board GPU Testing

    Oh, I see what you mean. Yes, these are plugged into the psu. These are the same, or at least look the same, as panchovix showed in the l1tech thread. Regarding the controller (if I understand what you mean), I don't have anything other than gpus that can be plugged into the slimsas to pcie x16...

    New Chinese PCIE Switch Board GPU Testing

    I've tried several cables I purchased recently (amazon link). I only have 0.8m ones that seemed to work fine in a bifurcation card (although that has issues with negotiating gen 4 and I had to use gen 3 on them). I tried both pcie slots (the one linked to the cpu directly and the one behind the...

    New Chinese PCIE Switch Board GPU Testing

    I ordered a PEX88096 (firmware only, 5x16) as well from aliexpress recently. I've been trying to get it working without too much luck. I'm not really sure at this point what the actual issue is: whether it's the card itself, or the motherboard/cpu combo (tried two B550M motherboards with 5700x...
