Sapphire HD4830 @2x?

Pharman · Jan 4, 2009

Hi all,

i just finished format and reinstall my PC: MSI P6N SLI, E2160 and a Sapphire HD4830 but gpu-z and ATI CCC shows my VGA it's running at 2x. :confused:

It's a hardware problem, incompatibility?

Any help?

Best regards.

Do you have any sort of external HDD or PCI-E cards in?

Pharman · Jan 4, 2009

Not, only a Audigy 4 PCI. Thanks for the interest.

That's weird then. Have you tried resetting the bios and running no CPU OC?

GPUZ might just be reading it wrong. Try running games and seeing if they perform worse.

maybe in the bios is some config to select the amount of lanes u want, but is weirdo :confused:

ATI CCC shows the same:

Could you fill out your system specification please

This is a driver issue with your motherboard. I would first though advise that you go into bios and check any of you pci settings that you have. Like such making sure your pci-e is set to a fixed frequency of 100.

If that doesn't seem to have any effect then I would just reinstall the latest Chipset drivers for your motherboard. In the end, try to reinstall bios if that doesn't work.

Ok, done.

Try reseating the card.

erocker · Jan 4, 2009

Make sure it's set to PCIE and not PCI in the bios. Make sure your motherboard and chipset drivers are up to date.

PCI-E Frecuency is a 100MHz.
