    Question GTX 580 stuck at PCIE 1.1 x16 on B660M ?

    I contacted ASUS themselves. This is what they said: "Thank you for contacting the ASUS UK Support Team. Kindly be advised these products aren't designed with use of 10+ year old cards in mind hence we do not validate such cards on newer platforms, it might be resolved with future BIOS...

    Question GTX 580 stuck at PCIE 1.1 x16 on B660M ?

    I know how it works. I’m monitoring the PCIE State in multiple programs and i have about 20 different GPU’s I vary through testing, it’s just the PCIE 2.0 cards that are having issues. Asked a friend of mine to do the same on his ASUS H610M and he got the same result, so i’ve contacted ASUS as...

    Question 980 Ti black screen flicker ?

    Honestly it might just be the card being funky, if you have other hardware, try that instead on the 85"

    Question Which gpu to pick?

    I think it's a bit hit and miss, but on both sides of the fence they can have issues in games, however modern drivers are mainly to a standard where they will be fine, and to answer your earlier reply, yes I think the 6600 is a decent card. However, i'd personally go for the 6600XT as I think...

    Question 980 Ti black screen flicker ?

    I used to run a 980Ti on a 4K 60hz display until a few months ago when i upgraded, and when i first ran it it used to coil whine and then crash at 4K high fps loads, so stuff like 500+fps used to make it crash, wonder if it could be something similar, 980Ti’s are getting on a bit but still good...

    Question Which gpu to pick?

    I’d see if could get a 3060ti or go with the 6600XT, better options then the 6650XT and 3060 (and non XT 6600) in regards to price to performance - From my experience nvidia drivers are better, but both cards will do what you need.

    [SOLVED] RTX 3060 HELP!!!!

    I did a little bit of searching and found this on a microsoft forum: "If you notice nvlddmkm.sys errors on your computer, a bad driver could be at the root of the problem. This error occurs on systems containing the NVidia graphics card: • Incorrect memory timings or voltages •...

    Question New Asus 6900XT Starcraft 2 stuck on 1920x1200

    Is this trying to change in game resolution or actually screen resolution, some games can lock the resolution if you are using windowed fullscreen from what i'm aware of.

    Question Had low FPS for a couple of weeks, then suddenly it's high again --- can someone explain what happened please ?

    I have a feeling your 8GB RAM might be part of the issue, if it's a single channel stick that likes to kill performance, and also I see in your screenshots you're averaging 6.2-7.7GB + the other bit next to it (whatever that is) as capping out system RAM is a heavy bottleneck since it can't...

    Question GTX 580 stuck at PCIE 1.1 x16 on B660M ?

    I’m running both Aida 64 and GPU-Z in foreground with the game running in windowed mode behind - game is still running at full load. Even performing the GPU-Z render doesn’t change it in App from PCIE 1.1 X16 @ PCIE 1.1 X16 - however, Aida 64 shows PCIE 2.0x16 @ PCIE1.1 x16 at full load. I’ve...

    Question GTX 580 stuck at PCIE 1.1 x16 on B660M ?

    I manually set the top slot to pcie gen 2.0 and the card just stayed at 1.1x16 no matter what load I put it under.

    Question GTX 580 stuck at PCIE 1.1 x16 on B660M ?

    I’m not using SLI on this system, ik the 2x 580 is a bit misleading but i meant by the fact i’ve tried 2 different 580’s in the top slot. I’ll give what you said a go in the bios.

    Question GTX 580 stuck at PCIE 1.1 x16 on B660M ?

    Hello, I recently managed to get ahold of a ASUS TUF B660M GAMING Wifi D4 and an i3-12100 for an upgrade to my secondary pc, however i have since noticed that my PCIE 2.0 cards will never run at PCIE 2.0 in the system, only at PCIE 1.1 x16 (according to GPU-Z.) I’ve tried multiple driver...
