ASRock x470 Gaming k4 Primary Graphics adaptor

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   Hi all,

I have the ASRock x470 Gaming k4 motherboard. My problem is, I have 2 video card in the PCIx16 slots, and a 3rd video card in the PCIEx1 slot.  

I want the PCIx16 card to be the Primary Graphics card, but it always defaults to the card in the PCIEx1 slot.

Any way to choose, it seems the option is disabled in the bios.

	Yeah my problem is they are all plugged into HDMI. So I guess it's not possible. The think it's I can see the option to choose primary graphics card in the bios, it's just disabled for some reason.
