Z9PE-D8 WS Refuses to Enumerate Any 32GB GPU, Thwarting a 4-GPU Local LLM Rig
exaknight21 · reddit · 2026-10-19
A user bought an Asus Z9PE-D8 WS with 4 x16 slots and 256GB DDR3 RDIMM to pair with 2× V620 and 2× Mi50 32GB cards, aiming to run Qwen3.6-35B-A3B at q4 with 131k-context KV cache at q8.
The board fails to enumerate a single 32GB GPU, so they're asking for board/RAM recommendations that would let them keep the memory — preferably without spending another $1,000 on motherboard plus RAM.
