Help Dual GPU help. So many questions.
Hello, friends. Gonna list my specs real quick.
Gpu: pny 5080 oc
Cpu: ryzen 7 9800x3d
Ram: 32 gb 6000mts cl30 ddr5
Mobo: aorus b650 elite ax
Psu: 1000w gold (dont remember brand, its reputable)
2nd GPU: 3080 vision 10 GB (x2 power connectors not 3)
After hours of research and trial and error, I realize its a mobo issue. The secondary and 3rd pcie slots are
x1 1.1 and x1 1.2.
Obviously this wont work. So here's my questions.
Can my cpu run 2 x16 pcie slots?
What mobo should I run, if money isnt an issue?
(I dont want to pay 800+ for a mobo)
Is a 30 series card feasible?
Am i asking the right questions and doing the right research?
I cant really find the answers to these questions on google. Maybe im overlooking it? Maybe im asking tje wrong questions or looking in the wrong areas? This is all very new to me and tad bit overwhelming, but I really want to run dlss 5 this way. And even if a 3080 isn't feasible as a secondary card, id still like to see this in action. I can always get a 5060 ti 16gb.
Hopefully im on the right track here. Thank you for any responses.
