Product Type: Motherboard Model: PRIME Z370-A BIOS Version: 3004 [Graphics Card Info: 3070 rtx] Operating System / Firmware: 3004 & 3003 [CPU: i7 8700K] Memory: GSKILL F4-3200C16D-16GTZR Trident Z RGB DDR4-3200 CL16-18-18-38 1.35V 16GB (2x8GB) [Additional Components: m.2 SSD, HDD] Issue Description: Problem with the BIOS graphics card slot. I own a 3070 and an i7 8700K. During testing, I used a 1060 GTX card. The main concern is the lane count in the slot—there are three ports, but only one provides full 16 lanes. I tried lowering RAM speed to 2133, but it still returns to 1x. Updating BIOS seems like the final option before upgrading to version 3003/3004. Any advice would be appreciated. Contact: 0546124981]

Check if you're assigning the first GPU slot and confirm it's set to x1. Identify the application you're using to verify this setting.
