Hello,
i can't understand why my PCIex4 and PCIex16 slots works only x1 line and doesn`t use x4 with Nvme PCIe adapter. Is a bad adapter?
i puted adapter into gpu x16 slot, CrystalDiskInfo shows transfer: Current mode PCIe 3.0 x1 | supported mode PCIe 3.0 x4
and then i puted adapter into x4 slot, CrystalDiskInfo shows transfer: Current mode PCIe 2.0 x1 | supported mode PCIe 3.0 x4
then i puted video card Geforce GTX660 in x16 slot gpu-z shows PCIe v3.0 x16
Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-Z68AP-D3 rev 2.0 with latest UEFI beta bios, i tried and downgraded bios, disabled SATA ports, all PCIe slots are empty - same thing...
