Guys need some help, just built a new rig, with a 7950gx2 superclocked EVGA card in it, I notice with CPU-Z and Nvidias driver in the control panel that my PCI-Express GFX port is only running at 8x and not 16x as it should be. I've tried everything I can think of to remedy this situation: Swapped from orange Pci-e slot to black one, still 8x and back to orange one, still 8x. Tried resetting CMOS removing card unplugging pc for 5 mins, re powering up and setting all bios settings again, still 8X!
Im at my whits end with it, The manual states that the PCI-E slots will switch to 8x if you use the 2nd slot... but im not! Anyone else with a P5W DH and a 7950gx2 confirm that they are getting 16x pci-e under cpu-z please.
So still no help with this matter then?
All I can think to suggest is that you install the latest 975X chipset drivers, available at Intel's site:

Flash to the latest BIOS (1407), as well.
