Any tool to verify if your card is at 16x or 8x?

Hello,

I was curious if there was a utility that would be able to if your card was at 16x or 8x?

Thanks

GPU-z should tell you. It does for me. Now if you are running SLI/Crossfire and only have 16 lanes, I am not sure if it will accurately tell you if you are using 8 each. It's generally ill advised to use such tech these days anyway, for gaming at least.

Indeed gpu-z is the way to go, but have something rendering in a window or generally have some load on the card, otherwise it will be showing pcie1.1 or pci2.0 or some other low load reading.

Yup. There's actually a little doodad in GPU-z that will do that for you. I think it's a question mark you click next to interface. Guess there were a lot of questions about why PCI-Express 2/3 was showing up as 1.1.

My CPU-Z mainboard tab shows the graphics interface. Link width and max supported are shown.
