Referring to the above snapshot of GPU-Z, my Area-51 R2 shipped with the Titan X in the top PCI-Express x16 slot (SLOT1). See how GPU-Z reported it as = PCIe x16 3.0 @ x8 1.1
I moved the Titan X into the middle PCI-Express x16 slot (SLOT3). Now, see how GPU-Z reports it as = PCIe x16 3.0 @ x16 1.1
PCI-Express x16 slot (SLOT1) = Gen 3, running at x16 bus speed (x8 if Intel i7-5820K CPU is installed) PCI-Express x1 slot (SLOT2) = running at x1 bus speed PCI-Express x16 slot (SLOT3) = Gen 3, running at x16 bus speed PCI-Express x4 slot (SLOT4) = Gen 2, running at x4 bus speed PCI-Express x16 slot (SLOT5) = Gen 3, running at x16 bus speed (x8 if Intel i7-5820K CPU is selected) (NVME SSD + PCIe adapter = Boot drive)
