      Does anyone know of an easy way to tell from within Windows whether your card is running in a PCIe 2 or 3 slot and to verify it's at full 3 speed?

        @creayt IIRC even the 980TI won't max a PCIe 2.0 x16 slot.

        I run my gtx970 in a PCIe2.0 x16 and it's fine.

        To answer your actual question though, no clue haha

          oh I lied, I might know a way... I think there's something like CPU-Z for your graphics card... one sec

              Ok scratch my theory. I hooked up an identical 4th 2560x1440 27" Dell monitor and it ran flawlessly w/ all 4, but all 4, even the HDMI one, were 59 Hz. What a weird thing.

                  Hooray. PCI-E 3.0

                  Tried to upload a .jpg 3 times. Keep getting parse errors on Mango if that's a concern.

                          Tested and the error is happening in Chrome for me but not for Firefox. Are you on Chrome?

                            Yes I am. I have Firebug installed for development which renders the browser unusable for anything other than development. So it's 100% Chrome for browsing.

                                Seems to work if it's the only thing in the post.

                                  Oh that is interesting, I wonder if that is the same for me...

                                  Nope, this still worked on FF.

                                    Probably my most frivolous purchase in years.

                                    Backplate for the GTX. Seems to add a certain je ne sais quoi.
