Error encountered during MSI MPG X570 Gaming Plus installation with MSI RX 5700 XT.
I assembled my new system using the latest components. The GPU isn’t functioning properly when inserted into the top PCIe X16 slot, but it works in the bottom one. When booting with the GPU in the top slot, I encounter a VGA boot error on the motherboard. It operates correctly in the lower slot. Did the GPU or motherboard have compatibility issues that might be causing this problem?
Verify the BIOS PCIe configurations. It seems there may be lane reallocation happening. Is an M.2 SSD already connected? Also, are you utilizing a SATA SSD?
Upgrade the BIOS and clear the CMOS. MSI X570 chipsets are known for poor performance.
