GPU-Z was showing that the slower one was running on x4 3.0 and the faster on x16 3.0. Cuz this is what the Mobo (Asrock z77 Pro4) has:
- 1 x PCI Express 3.0 x16 slot (PCIE2: x16 mode)
- 1 x PCI Express 2.0 x16 slot (PCIE3: x4 mode)
- 1 x PCI Express 2.0 x1 slot
- 3 x PCI slots
- Supports AMD Quad CrossFireX™ and CrossFireX™
Sooo...i don't suppose there is a way to manually set them both running at x8 3.0 ?? If not, then it means....new mobo??
![Evil or Very Mad :evil:](./images/smilies/icon_evil.gif)
But basically, when I had them both running at 810Mhz clock speed, the second would be fully loaded while the first and faster would go around 50%. When I had them at 925Mhz, they both would run around 50%.
A friend will be getting a new comp for xmas. I was planning to give him my old PSU so I will offer my old Mobo as well. It will save me some bucks if i go for this one:

It has 2 PCIE3 x16 although it says:
- 2 x PCI Express 3.0 x16 slots (PCIE1/PCIE3: single at x16 (PCIE1) / x8 (PCIE3) or dual at x8/x8 mode)
If i get it right, when inserting both cards they will run at x8/x8 not x16/x16 ??
I knew there was something fishy when that idiot in the shop told me he has no crossfire cables to test it, because the cable is in the mobo box. I know they come with the vga card but i wasn't 100% sure so I didn't argue....then I go home and see the bridge on the bottom of the box. I also realized yday that there were no cables in the box...that fraker had taken them out. Stupid cunt, son of a whore!!!
