Weird situation

[Secret passenger]

So yesterday 29/1/2022 or 1/29/2022, i was browsing my computer settings when i stable on the Radeon software that my CBS was been in PCI 3.0 x8 rather in x16 setting, so i started searching why and how to fix that, i searched threw my BIOS settings for my pci option and it  was in x16 mode not in split or other options that could change them.

What i dont remember from very previous days is to check if my gpu was running in x16 or x8. after I made a change to my pc, i plugged a audio card in my first pci slot (cause of space) on my vertical mount gpu with the extenter,

after i unplugged my audio card to check other options of how to manage my extenter in order to plug the audio card in the pcie slot.....

To summarise when i turned on the pc it was dropping some bluescreens (i dont remember the codes that was posting) after a while and unplugged audio card eventually my pc was keep crashing (with the classic AMD issue detection message)+blackscreens for a sec on 2-3 games on startup that i had to check on.

 

Internet forums didnt have this specific problem to understand why was it happening in order to use one method and be done with this.

 

What i did to try and solve the problem is to try the internet solutions of-

 

-CMD SFC etc etc nothing of that 4 options worked

-FRESH windows Install and again the same

-DDU like 4 times before and after the Fresh windows install with 2 different Software versions nothing

 

The holl point of what im trying to say is that 3 Bscreens and it created this problem?

 

I could count that it might be something with the extenter or the graphics card but the games starts WHEN the Software is closed (like it didnt turn on or i closed it).

 

Something important All this specs was working well before i started uplugging my audio card, GPU, extenter.
Radeon software was in 21.12.1 and now im using 22.1.2.

So your GPU is connected to the middle PCI_e x16 slot? Although the middle slot is physically x16, electrically it's only x8 therefore any GPU installed in the second PCI_e slot will only run at PCI 3.0 x8.

 

Are you using a M.2 SSD? With this platform you only have 20 PCI_e lanes to go around coming off the CPU. You'll run into issues if you try to use more. You would have to plug in the sound card through the PCH.

Well aside from the how many lanes goes where the problem goes to my "Drivers" , "Gpu riser"  or my "GPU" is causing the problem that crashing with a instant black screen the game that im trying to play now is Forza horizon 5 i was playing this game since almost the beggining and right now it goes to startup loading and after 3 sec of the load screen it crashes it never passes to load the graphics or it will crash immidietly
