ASRock B450 Pro4 - 9+ gpu cards - mixed rig

Hi everyone,

i have 10 GPUS on B450 Pro4 using 2x 1to4 usb risers in 16x a 4x PCIE slots.
I have mixed rigs with amd rx 6800 / 6700 / 6600.
When i tried to add 10th AMD card - rx580 (the 2nd gpu into 1to4 pcie riser card), I got errors like for example:

  1. indicating the bad pcie riser like this one (Bad Riser example) :
    [ 50.494448] amdgpu 0000:21:00.0: [drm:amdgpu_ib_ring_tests [amdgpu]] ERROR IB test failed on gfx (-110).
    [ 50.494464] [drm:process_one_work] ERROR ib ring test failed (-110).
  2. sometimes miner got stuck at:
    Auto-detected AMD OpenCL platform 0
    Auto-detected AMD OpenCL platform 1…

BUT If I add nvidia card ( Nvidia 1060 gt) using the same riser and same usb port on 1to4 riser, everything is working as expected, and 10th card is. working well:

Please what could be the problem? I haven’t tried another AMD miner yet.

Thanks for any hints.

So I tried another miners:
Phoenix, TeamBlackMiner, Ethminer, but every miner stuck at detecting gpus/platforms, when rx 580 added.
The card is working well itself.

The gpus are detected ok as well:

Thanks for any hint, below is dmesg init of the AMD rx580 card:

Finally I got it WORKING!
I had to move AMD RX580 to the dedicated PCIE port/riser and exchange RX6600 tp pcie 1to4 riser 2nd port instead.
Anyway, Phoenix or any other universal AMD/Nvidia miner was not working, so used dual amd+nvidia miner combo as you can see below:

So 11 gpus working and goint to add another one…
