Hi all, I have a very powerfull X470 Taichi Ultimate R7 2700X Linux station. I do have 2 GPUs, an old GTX 980Ti, and a new RTX 2080. The larger RTX2080 is plugged on PCIE1. The thinner GTX980Ti is plugged on PCIE3.
At this moment, the system starts on the RTX2080 slot 1.
How can I start the system on the GTX slot3 ?
Thanks for your hints

You can always physically swap the 2 cards anyway. A CMOS reset may be necessary too.
P.S. I'm glad you have a very powerful Linux station. ;)

Width of both cards are differents. RTX is a 3 slots, and GTX is 2 slots. Width of PCIE1 is 3slots, width of PCIE3 is 2 slots, and I have an ASUS Essence STXII sound card on the last slot. Then, I can't swap cards.
