I noticed in my bios that the GPU is using x8 native. I’m curious why and how to get it to run at full power, x16.

PSU 750 watt
750W is the stated power output of the device, but details about its brand, model, and age are needed.
Asus ROG Strix Z370E
What BIOS version are you currently using?
Are there any additional hardware connected to your motherboard's PCIe ports?

It worked! After updating the bios to version 3005, it's displaying "running at x16 native." I also verified the GPU z software.
