    Question Both GPU fans, highest temperature reading?

    Hi. I’m running a crossfire RX 480 setup and would like to make my fans curve their speed based on the highest temperature, because one card always has its fans lower which results in unnecessary heat. 2x MSI RX 480 8GB 16 GB Corsair DDR4 2400 Ryzen 5 1600 X370 Gaming Pro Carbon

    No option to set PCIeX16 as initial graphics?

    So today was the day I got myself into building my own PC for the first time. It was a learning experience, but I've come up to a problem I cannot solve. My mobo, the Gigabyte H170-DS3H, does not seem to pick up my RX 480 GPU. What I mean is, it's all lit up, fans going and all, but I have no...
