Motherboard: I have a p7p55d-e ASUS mother board. Here is the link to the EXACT one I have:
ASUSTeK Computer Inc. - Motherboards- ASUS P7P55D-E
Problem:
As you can see the motherboard has 2x 16x PCIe slots, One blue, One dark grey.
ANY ATI card that I put into these slots runs at 4x speed. (seen VIA GPU z latest version)
ANY NVIDIA card i put into these slots runs at 16x speed.
Needed Solution:
I need to get ONE ATI card to run at 16x Bus interface.
ATI cards I have:
3x 5770's (xfx)
1x 6970 (currently being RMA's (replaced) by Newegg) (xfx)
Nvidia cards I have:
1x 460 (evga)
1x 465 (evga)
What I have done:
Latest Bios has been installed (Battery taken out full reset has happened)
Cleaned Both pcie slots and pins on both ATI cards
Other information:
I have a i7 860 (no overclock since bios update)
8gb of DDR3 ram (checked for errors no problems with any sticks)
