(Sorry about my English ) Hello guys yesterday i disassemble my PC for cleaning purposes and now when i run GPU-Z it shows that my video card is runnig at x8 3.0 instead x16 even at full load with a game or benchmark. The video card was runnig at x16 @ 3.0 before cleaning. The video card is in the 1st PCIex slot. No other cards or M.2 SSD are connected. I already try this with no results:
1- Clean the video card contacts with a cleaning contact spray and a rubber (No solution still x8 3.0)
2- Reset the UEFI (No solution still x8 3.0)
3- Put the card in the 2nd PCIexp slot and it get worse because shows x4 speed (my mobo has 4 PCIexp) (No solution)
4- Verify the power saving options for PCIexp in Windows control panel and Nvidia control panel (No solution still x8 3.0)
5- Force GEN3 option in UEFI instead of Auto for PCIexp slot 1 (No solution still x8 3.0)
I really don´t understand what happens it was working just fine at full speed 3.0 @ x16. I know that is no real impact in performance working at x8 speed, but i just want to know if is something bad with the card or the Mobo. The only think that i do different was exchange the 2nd 6pin PCI exp power cable for other. My card is MSI GTX 970 (8pin + 6pin power connectors), mobo ASrock Z170 Fatal1ty Professional Gaming, PSU EVGA SuperNOVA 850W P2 and CPU is i5 6600K runnig @ 4.4Ghz. Can u help me plz! Thanks!
