    Hey guys

    Hope u can help with this one, been bugging me for a while.
    I recently built a new PC as follows:

    Asus A8N-SLI Deluxe
    AMD64 3200+ Winchester
    2x512 G.Skill PC3200 Dual series
    Point of view 6800 Ultra PCX
    400 W North Q Super Silent ATX PSU

    The thing is that my GFX only runs at 8x speed and I cant quit figure out how to get it up to 16x.
    The little card on mobo is flipped to single card. Must be something in bios, just cant find it. :eek:

    Hope u can help :D

    it wont make any difference to performance,its still faster than agp x8 and thats has enough banwidth for any of the lastest cards.I dont have a pci-e board yet so I wouldn't know how to get it to 16,BTW welcome to MG. :D

    Nope, BFV (online), in EVO clan now, and about the fps, can never figure out wich value to read, but its a bit diff. from map to map, from 1xx something up to close to 200 i think. At least everything is at highest setting and it runs smooth. Lag is a thing of the past :D

    Okay, you said that your sli board is set for non-sli mode.

    Which x16 slot is it in? Have you tried the other one instead? Same thing?

    In the manual it says:

    "In Normal mode, only the PCI Express blue slot can be used for PCI Express x 16 graphics cards. The PCI Express black slot functions as a PCI Express x 1 slot"

    Therefore I used the blue slot :confused:
