I see you have an M.2 Plugged in, remove it and your slot 3 should then work.




I looked for that in the Micro 2's manual, but didn't see anything saying that a PCIE slot is disabled with m.2 plugged in - 28 or 40 lane CPU.


A Test that csrikant can do!
 
Also this MB only has 3 PCIe Slots "X99-MACRO 2 PCIE slot4 not working non of the device are recognized in windows bios show"

See if you can disable it in the Bios before you remove it. Not sure if that really would work through.
Are you also saying that your Wireless card also will not work in Slot 3?

ok removed M.2 /disabled in bios Slot 3 works all devices are recognised.
Final conclusion
Slot 3 is wired to /shared M.2 so if you install M.2 device. And enable in bios M.2 slot  Slot3 is disabled  will not recognize any device in windows.

 yes bro nothing works in slot3  if m.2 is enabled.
Wasted one slot  design EVGA should improve on it.

I still happy with this system I have ASUS MATX M-WS same CPU and RAMS can get only 4.5 MHZ overclock
EVGA can get 5.2MHZ overclock so happy to live with this build move my Intel drive to ASUS and use this system like this.

This is what I was thinking.
