RTX 2080Ti Running at PCIe 3.0 x8

I noticed some massive frame drops on decade-old games that used to run flawlessly on my RTX 2080Ti. After doing a little bit of research, someone recommended I download GPU-Z and I confirmed my card is running at x8, despite being on the same x16 slot it's been since the day I got the card.

Not sure what happened for the speeds to change, but I did transfer everything over to my new case and I feel that's where something may have gone wrong.

How do I fix it?

Pop the card out and reseat it. I had a similar issue happen and this solved the issue.  
 

my assumption is that some of the pins were not making good contct. 

Tell my tale to those who ask. Tell it truly; the ill deeds along with the good, and let me be judged accordingly.

Thanks KWelz! I just tried your suggestion, but it's still stuck at x8. Do you know what else it could be?

Have you checked the settings in the bios?   Perhaps reset CMOS?
