Hey everyone, just tried the new gigabyte Trx40 with my 3970x Threadripper. I’m aiming to run a quad 2080Ti on this card. According to specs, it should work fine. But I’m stuck—can’t add four GPUs without hitting a D4 error or Pcie allocation issue. The manual mentions it’s out of resources. Anyone have ideas? I’ve changed everything already and nothing helped.

It might relate to a PCIe 3.0 versus 4.0 configuration. There’s a Reddit thread about someone facing a similar issue with PCIe 3.0 cards, where the third port wouldn’t recognize a card. The problem hasn’t been resolved yet.

They didn’t consider the implications, I’d have liked backward compatibility. The D4 issue suggests it lacks sufficient PCIe lanes, yet it still has enough. That doesn’t add up.

I'll make the updates to the most recent version for you. You mentioned it could be the problem?

I’m fairly certain that adding even a single PCIe component causes the whole system to switch to PCIe 3.

It's possible, but you'd need BIOS updates to fix those issues.

The bios must be configured to assign the required resources. This is why I can't use my Tesla card on a gaming rig—it needs to run on a workstation board, which matches your setup. If resource allocation isn’t handled correctly in the bios code, it won’t function. If upgrading the bios still causes problems, reach out to Gigabyte for help. For more details on running quad SLI, check this guide: https://forums.evga.com/RTX-2080-Ti-4way...56-p2.aspx. It’s more than just installing cards and adjusting the control panel. Good luck! Your rig sounds great!

Hey there, friend. It seems you're dealing with an error code even after updating your BIOS to the latest version. You might want to reach out for a replacement part. While searching, two others reported the same problem with a 4K 2080tis display—pretty odd. It could be either a BIOS or hardware issue.

It might be possible. I’d reach out to Gigabyte for electrical specifics and a beta bios before initiating the RMA. The issue isn’t necessarily with the board—it’s that it isn’t officially compatible with quad SLI since it isn’t supported. You can also check TechPowerUp forums; there are discussions about SLI cards and some experts might assist. There’s a thread titled “sli” with various card suggestions, and you could try contacting PinkPanther there for guidance.
