My board is a Asus X570 Formula VIII im running BIOS 1001

I have a Nvidia 2070 Super

When i go into the BIOS under Advanced>OnBoard Device configuration PCIEX16_2 bandwidth shows as X8 Mode (the other option is Auto)

Under Tool > Graphics Card information > GPU Post

It shows Slot : PCIEX16_2 as "Running at x8 Native" - it also says "install the GPU in PCIEX16_1 or PCIEX16_2"

my GPU is installed in slot 2 (PCIEX16_2)

Both Slot 1 & slot 2 i presume can support x16, hence their naming PCIEX16!

Why is my GPU only running at x8, its directly plugged into the motherboard.
