Initial PCIe port failing to detect Gen4 GPU device
Initial PCIe port failing to detect Gen4 GPU device
Hey guys, I've just upgraded to a Gigabyte Vision OC 3080 from my 2070S but I'm having some trouble with it, I can't get a post with the 3080 installed in the first PCIe slot! ● 3080 doesn't work in the FIRST PCIe slot ● 3080 works in the SECOND PCIe slot ● 3080 works in other GEN 3 PC's ● 2070s works in BOTH PCIe slots The 3080 fans spin & the logo lights up, but doesn't post / 'no signal' on my monitors - The 3080 doesn't even get warm whilst the PC is on with no display showing, it's literally not being detected atall... Things I've tried so far : ●Updating BIOS ●DDU safe mode drivers ●Cleaning PCIe slot ●Resetting BIOS to default settings ●Unplugged all SATA/USB devices ●Reseating/Checking CPU for bent pins ●Reseating alternate RAM sticks in the preferred slots ●Making sure PCIe power cables are correctly clipped in ●UEFI/CSM both modes ●Settings PEG0 to Gen 3/2/1/Auto ●Different HDMI/DP cables ●Removing my M.2 My Specs; MSI Z490 Tomahawk Corsair 16GB DDR4 3200Mhz 10700KF 2070S/3080 RM850X Thanks in advance
All power connections from the PSU to the GPU appear correct. There doesn’t seem to be any daisy-chained PCIe cables involved. Your RX 6800 XT wasn’t detected because one of the cables wasn’t properly seated in the PSU, and even after trying a daisy chain, it didn’t work—so you ended up using separate PCIe cables instead.
Everything is working correctly now. I bought a fresh PSU a few days back just to check, but it didn’t help. I’m using a daisy chain PCIe power cable, and I’ll try again!
I recently tested two separate PCIe cables but faced issues. For extra caution, I left them connected and tried clearing CMOS again, avoided using any USB or SATA drives, swapped the RAM sticks, yet nothing worked.
I also switched PEG0 (probably PCIe 1) to Gen 3. I've experimented with Gen 1, 2, and 3, as well as Auto. I've tried different ResizeBAR settings, Above 4G decoding, UEFI/CSM, and a few other configurations too…
