[SOLVED] Thermaltake PCIE w/ P3 Case.

[khaderkh87]

Hello,



I just recently bought thermaltake p3 case that came with pcie cable extender, anyways i've been struggling with my card performance and stuttering.



I removed the pcie extender (riser) on one side its written PCIE01 and on the other side PCIE02.



What does this mean? Does it only support pcie2? I have power hungry rx580 which draws around 200watts?

I believe that is just the designation silkscreened on the PCB and has nothing to do with it's physical width. As for power draw, the maximum power drawn from a PCIE slot is 75W, the rest will be coming from the PCIE power connectors.

I doubt it's the PCIE Extender. You can bypass it to test temporarily though. THis way you know for sure.
