Hello, I have a Lian Li q58 case with a PCIe 3.0 riser. I am trying to use it with a B650i, Ryzen 5 7600x and an RTX 3060 ti.

In the Bios (ver. 3.01) I found a section under AMD PBS\Common Platform Module called PCIe x16 Link Speed and have the options of setting Auto or Gen 1 through 5. I had tried to set to Gen 3 but this did not work.

When I reboot using onboard graphics, it reset itself back to Auto.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
