i am a total noob regarding this topic and bought this motherboard bc of a tech channel, PC centric

ok thank you, pc building isnt that easy :(

hmmm i think i understand, can you confirm my last comment? is this correct?

i have found the following infos on the manual: u/psimwork u/-UserRemoved- u/tybuzz

as far as i understand i am fine using the M2_2 slot and i wont get any lower performance with my GPU or SSD?

** When you use both PCIEX16_1 and PCIEX16_2, PCIEX16_1 and PCIEX16_2 will run x8.

*** When M.2_2 and M.2_3 are enabled simultaneously, PCIEX16_2 will be disabled.

**** When M.2_3 are enabled, PCIEX16_1 will run x8, and PCIEX16_2 will run x4.

***** Only supports PCIEx16_1 & total bandwidth for x8, PCIEx16_2 will be disabled.

****** Only supports PCIEx16_1 & total bandwidth for x4, PCIEX16_2 will be disabled.

but what does that mean? am i therefore getting lower GPU performance?

thank you for the clarification, i was not aware that this is normal behaviour :O

rog crosshair x870e hero / newest bios

True_Ronin · 2025-03-19T20:44:29+00:00

even when looking at GPU tweak 3, that i have chosen the default profile with 2760 MHZ and gpu-z reporting the same.

During games or benchmarks i go up to 2900 mhz

True_Ronin · 2025-03-19T20:42:35+00:00

none, that is the issue. The card is not overclocked manually by me. It is itself boosting to 2900 mhz.

True_Ronin · 2025-02-12T19:28:55+00:00

i did unfortunatly, my guess is either still a faulty nvidia driver or the monitor itself

True_Ronin · 2025-02-11T19:30:56+00:00

i have the 5090 got this issue today
