Specs:
MSI B450m Pro-A Max
Ryzen 1600AF@4ghz
TeamGroup 16GB DDR4 3400 (2x8GB)
XFX Thicc II Pro 5600XT (flashed to MSI vBIOS for unlocked OC)
EVGA 650w PSU
Drives:
WD Blue SN550 1TB PCIE-3 NVME - OS Drive
2TB Seagate Barracuda SATA3 HDD
Western Digital 500GB SATA3 HDD
BraveEagle 240GB SATA3 SSD
I know both my board and the 5600XT supports PCIE-4 however the GPU is always running at PCIE-3, I know that with some cheaper boards with NVME drives, the PCIE lanes can be shared, or run at lower gen, so perhaps that is why I can't run my GPU at PCIE-4 speeds as I also have a NVME drive using some lanes?
Any help/advice as to if this is all I can expect or if there might be anything I can try to get full PCIE-4 bandwidth would be appreciated
