Heya,
I have a problem with my new build.
First off some specs: Ryzen 2700x 16 GB DDR4 X470 Taichi ultimate (latest BIOS) 2x WD Black 1TB M.2 NVMe SSD's 2x Nvidia Quadro P620
I have my raid setup as a RAID 1 and windows 10 installed this all went pretty good.
But when i put in the second Quadro card i got no display output anymore.
I Swapped the cards and they were fine on there own, also they are in the correct slots PCIe1&3. Also tried diffrent GPU's all to no results
According to the manual this should work, but i get nothing.
Also tried setting the PCIe switch in the BIOS to 4x4 instead of the default 1x16, this allowed me to boot into windows but it doesnt detect the second card no matter what.
Anyone who can help me? Many thanks in advance. Pim

Hi Pim,
First, I'd recommend you flash BIOS 1.62 from [URL=https://www.jzelectronic.de/jz2/index.php]JZ[/URL]. Then clear CMOS, reboot and put your XMP profile only!
Second, adding additional GPU to a system with previously installed Windows & GPU drivers almost always ends in the situation you're depicting. Adding new GPU requires at least uninstalling the drivers first.
Anyhow, I suggest you flash the BIOS as mentioned above, wipe your RAID array and install Win from scratch.
Your mobo & CPU should otherwise handle NVMe RAID & dual-GPU just fine.

Oh, I thought you used RAID as soon as I noticed the 2x NVMe...
Either way, ypur mobo is more than capable to run 2xNVMe and 2xGPU.
As I said, plop the newest BIOS, reboot, clear CMOS, reboot, and re-install Win with the 2 GPUs already inserted in the mobo.

First off thanks for helping,
But it also works for me when im not havind the nvmes in raid. As soon as i turn on the BIOS setting NMVMe raid then i stop getting a display output.
I also tried the latest bios etc etc to no succes.

mmm, nope. Second M.2 SSD disables PCIe slot 5.

True that i know, but whats happening is when i enable NVMe raid in the BIOS in order to create my arrays PCIe3 also stops working for some reason.
