Pay attention! This is just an information for the capabilities of the card.
You should check the PCIE slots under Motherboard->SMBIOS DMI->System Slots where you can see the slot data bus width. The PCIE3 will show you the 8x mode, i guess. |

Hey Ray62, I didn't know about that. I don't think it does, instead:

It looks as it should in the PCIE3 slot: GPU is a PCIe 3.0 one Max. link width is 16 Current link width is 8 If you would place the card in PCIE1, it should be: GPU is a PCIe 3.0 one Max. link width is 16 Current link width is 16 |

You're wrong, Ray62; according to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PCI_Express#History_and_revisions, PCIe 3 works at 8 billion transactions per second.

OK, I run a test (The Witcher 3 in Wine+dxvk on Linux, 1920x1200, max settings, hairworks off). I don't see any difference in framerate, besides regular fluctuations:
slot 1:  slot 2:  So I'd assume the difference is slots not impacting it. |

Agreed, currently I don't believe even the 2080ti or RTX Titan can fully saturate the bandwidth of PCIe 3.0 x8. As far as I am aware, they can barely saturate PCIe 3.0 x4. Contrary to popular belief, GPUs do not fuel PCIe development, it is mostly designed for storage and network throughput. GPUs are quite a bit behind what a PCIe SSD or high bandwidth LAN adapter can demand. |
