Hi guys how are you?

I have a simple question

I bought 2 GTX 980 using at SLI, is there any software that shows me if it`s running at 16x16 or 16/8?

I think it`s running 16/16, take a look at my GPU-Z Screen:

Board 1



Board 2



Do you guys recommend other softwares to monitor this?

The mobo is a GA-Z87X-OC Force

Thanks

The easiest way is to look at your motherboard specs, however from looking at GPU-Z both claim the Bus Interface is PCI-E 3.0x16@x16.

Z87 does

1 x 16
2 x 8

You'd need a PLC chip to go further.

This board has a total of four PCI Express x16 slots. The top slot runs at x16 and Gigabyte recommend a single graphics card is installed here. The secondary PCI Express x16 slot runs at x8 bandwidth, sharing bandwidth with the top slot. If two graphics cards are installed, then both run at x8.
