Hello guys! My question is this:
Can I mine the same if I switch my RTX 2080 TI from PCIe Gen 3.0 to 2.0. I want to do this because I want to buy second card for mining(RTX 3060) and insert it in the PCIe 3.0 Gen slot . The 2 slots are PCIe 3.0 x16 and PCIe 2.0 x16. My motherboard is Asrock B450m Pro4. Thank you for the help!

Yes people even use a X1 slot with a riser.

EDIT I thought they gimped the 3XXX cards but they might be a work around.
