hi guys im wondering if anyone could give me some help with an issue im having with my old pc. to start with the build in question is cpu: 2600k, motherboard: Asus maximus iv extreme, gpu: Asus hd 7970, ram: 8 gb ddr 3 1600mhz, psu: 750w
so currently my old pc will not display anything on my screen when im using the pcie x16 slot. if i switch to the x8 slot it works fine. i have tried a gtx 1070 in the x16 slot on the maximus board and it works. i have also tried the asus 7970 in x16 slot on a gigabyte z170x gaming 7 and it also works fine displaying visuals, i am so confused. any help would be appreciated.
