Hello,
I have a problem, where my GPU, capable of running at PCIE3 x16, is running at extremely low bus interface instead, PCIE 2.0 x4 (under stress)
It hasn't affected my gaming much, but i'm curious why that is.
My GPU is in the PCIE 2.0 x16 slot, but according to GPU-Z and CCC it's only running at PCIE 2.0 x4 at maximum(I know my GPU can't run at PCIE3 in that slot, but even x4 is too low). I've searched the interwebs for an explanation, but i've found none yet.
Here's a pic of GPU-Z under stress load:
My specs are:
MOBO: Asrock H77 Pro4/mvp
GPU: Gigabyte AMD radeon HD7870
CPU: Intel I5-3470
