It’s telling you that you don’t have the 4-pin power cables connected to your motherboard. If you do have them plugged in then you have 2 possible issues happening. Either your motherboard is malfunctioning and may need to be replaced or your PSU is malfunctioning and may need to be replaced. Another possibility if your PSU is modular, there may be something wrong with the 4-pin cable you’re using.

So it happens with multiple PSU’s. That would indicated that there’s something wrong with your motherboard and rules out the PSU.

Odd question, have you plugged in all of the connectors to the second GPU as well? Including all power connectors? (6-pin, 8-pin, 2x6-pin…or whatever the card takes)

I have putted 1000W PSU at once and connected both 4-pins into motherboard and also fixed 8pin power to GPU and 4pin power to PIC Riser as well.

I hate to say it but you’re either connecting something wrong or your motherboard needs to be replaced as it’s defective.

I would double check all of your cables and make sure they’re all connected where they need to be and that are the correct cables to be used for where they’re connecting.

Are you able to take a picture of your motherboard and all it’s connectors and what you have connected?

It’s also worth a shot to try to update the motherboard BIOS to the latest firmware.

One other idea… You have two power supplies - try connecting the outside case of the two power supplies to each other with a small piece of wire. This will make sure that they have the same electrical ground potential. A simple wire from one power supply chassis to the other will do this.

Yes go to the manufacturer’s website and download the bios firmware for your motherboard. Just make sure you do not lose power or switch off once you have started the update - that can totally kill the motherboard. Be sure to take a look at your settings prior to updating. You may need to reset them in BIOS after the update. Taking pics with a phone camera can help here - just in case.

You only have 2 GPU’s correct? You don’t need 4G enabled until you add at least another 2 cards.

You still don’t need 4G enabled until you have 4 up and running. It will only impede the process.
