System launches immediately connecting numerous graphics cards.
I linked 12 GPUs onto your Asus motherboard, it functioned well with 8 but failed when you tried 12. After booting into BIOS, I manually selected the boot device and everything worked fine. Linux recognized all the GPUs and they operated properly. Someone, could you explain why it keeps going to BIOS? It’s frustrating since you enable power loss detection, but now it won’t start automatically because it always jumps to BIOS and needs manual selection. Also, it works again if I disconnect some GPUs.
The system runs smoothly in Linux because the BIOS handles initial setup, while the motherboard processes hardware during boot. Once Linux is running, the same processing logic applies to both, making the difference negligible.
It seems to function properly, but if the motherboard struggles, it could switch to the BIOS as a backup. This often occurs when the board isn't compatible with XMP or similar settings. The board might be reacting strongly to connected devices and prompting you to reach for the BIOS in case of issues. Try enabling a quick boot mode, but be cautious—such features may require your operating system to send a signal to access the BIOS. Ensure your OS supports UEFI before turning on fast boot options.
Yeah, 4 to 1 risers, and yes 4g thing is enabled. I'm currently using Linux mint 20.2 cinnamon and my bios is updated to the last version
