PCIe x16 not PCIe x16 2.0

[_orbital_]

Why i can't get PCIe x16 2.0? i have PCIe x16
i have mbo which supports PCIe x16 2.0
running visiontek 4870 8.6 drivers
vista ultimate 64bit

What type of motherboard do you have?

You may as well use the newer 8.8 drivers.

As said, what board? PCI-E x16 is not 2.0, 2.0 is a new revision to double the bandwidth of the slots while still maintaining backwards/forward compatibility.

i have biostar TA770 A2+

Its at 2.0, gpuz just dosent/cannot determine the difference. If your board supports 2.0, its 2.0 that simple. It cannot "nerf" itself down to 1.1
