My X9DRG-QF will boot fine with 4x Radeon Pro Duo (dual GPU card with 16gb PER GPU) but as soon as i add the 5th it wont post. I am not using any hypervisor, just booting straight to lubuntu. Above 4g decoding is enabled and i have tried all of the different MMIO base settings. Is this a limitation of the specific board or just BIOS in general? I know most people aren't trying to boot with 128gb+ of VRAM but I was hoping to get this to work with all five cards. Let me know if you have any suggestions

The system doesn't "see" vram.

How many video outputs does each card have? I think that there was some limit how many outputs are supported by bios/uefi.

Four outputs per card so a total of 20. Funny thing is that it posts fine with 5x rx570 8gb and each one of those has 5 outputs per card for a total of 25
