Big thank you to everyone for watching the video and commenting below. We have updated the description of this video to include more details on what you will need to jump an external PSU as requested.
Dumb question, Is it required to connect the HDMI in order for it to work, or is that optional?
I'd LIKE to use my laptop in a "2-Head" configuration , turning it into something ACTUALLY useful , more than just for gaming . Is there a way in the bios to set it so that it can see BOTH the internal gfx AND the external ? I l know I can plug 2 monitors into the ext card , but if I was to use the INT mon WITH the EXT , I _COULD disconnect the EXT. for portable use ... . I've seen this on other vids here on Y-T , but you were able to simplify the overall install better than most I've seen , so I thot I would ask . Thoughts ?
@@LA.20 - If you're asking to connect the HDMI to the laptop HDMI port , with the internal GFX disabled , the answer to THAT would be no . IF you're asking about connecting the HDMI cable to the EXT Vid , then I'd guess the answer to THAT would be YES , no matter which other port you'd used instead . It WOULD be interesting to see if you could connect 2 monitors to the external card , altho in it's native desktop configuration you can , so I'm guessing there wouldn't be a problem with _that_ here . I'm interested in running BOTH the internal GFX _and_ the EXTERNAL , so that I can run it as a native 2-Head unit without having to purchase a 2nd External Monitor ... .
@@chuckintexas Thank you very much for answering really appreciate it. Looks like my problem is the card itself as it won't even display anything despite being connected to the monitor, and it does not have a blue led light on, cause apparently RX580 should have a blue light present to indicate it that all connections are working. Already talked with the seller they are going to replace it.
well, he uses the cheaper version of egpu riser, it's made for mining bit coin so the manufacturer didn't tweak it for different purpos, but there's a special variant of this which is the expgdc beast, it will use your laptop's display and doesn't need external monitor.
Very cool video!
It actually brings back what PC gaming was (for me) always about. A bit of tinkering and achieving results with creative thinking.
Nowadays it seems it's all about splurging funds for the latest and greatest - yet this shows that lots can be done with older hardware.
Thanks for posting!
PC Gaming will always be about the tinkering for me. Yeah, you can splurge and that's fine for a high end stable system but I have so many systems about to tinker with too it keeps things fun.
It's stioll 100$ about tinkering. It's just that the things to tinker with have cam up in price. That and a lot more people have been buying pre builts.
Older hardware= no support
Nowadays everyone wants to run at 4k @ 200fps, meanwhile games are incomplete, full of bugs and boring as hell
Well I have 5900 x and Rx 6800 and have no plan to upgrade anytime soon. I did just upgrade from four 8 gig sticks of 3200 mhz DDR 4 to two 16 gig sticks of 4000 mhz DDR 4 and that will do it for now. Ram got cheaper. especially when you look at my video's i upload. Things a beast.
I remember doing this forever ago, nearly a decade ago, when I didn't have a proper PC yet, but had found the GPU I wanted (Radeon HD 7770) on a really good sale and wouldn't have the money for the other parts for a few more months, so I used it on my crappy laptop to play games for the time being, good times! Remember telling people I had a desktop GPU on my laptop and they were like "how?", because it was such a new concept back then.
For testing how things are detected by Windows by the way, I prefer to use good old dxdiag, since it can show you if the card specs are also recognized correctly, not just the model.
just found this channel and i love it, very informative and professional, good work🎉💪🏾❤️
Thank you so much for this video, I'm just looking for about using regular gpu with laptop around 5 years ago and never find out.. thank you so much.
Cool! I wait for the external enclosure!
Thank you so much! I've been looking into rebuilding an old netbook with a broken screen into a headless games console of sorts, and i've been looking into these adapters... but all the other youtube channels only use these super expensive GPU docks and i had no idea if these small adapters actually work, or if they are just useless mining hardware.
You can use a different raiser like ADT-Link or others which you can connect to your M.2 pcie slot which has 4 lanes instead of 1 for the mini pcie making it a lot faster.
You should test this and try different gpu generation for example 3000 series and overkill 4000 series to see if there are any difference going overkill. Would be a great content for you.
Yes, we have been looking into the M.2 slot versions recently as we have a system in which could utilise it. Will take a look at something higher end in terms of GPU for it.
@@TechLabUK Please do! Would be interesting to see how a 4070 for example would perform.
Great idea endless GPU possibilities now!
Tis an awesome mod tbh. Can bring a whole new life to an old Laptop or MiniPC.
Finally someone made this cheap riser, I think this riser is the same as EXP GDC, the logic is the same but I've been looking for a review of this riser for a long time, and it only appears in 2023. This video is very useful, this can be a cheap alternative to old laptops. Unfortunately, I'm still afraid to try because of an unexpected error 😂
This video is perfect for me, I've been looking for a way to upgrade my laptop and the only thing I have find about external GPUs are those ones that are really expensive
? wat?
... just found a rog strix 1070 ti for just over $200CAD ebay..
... that will rape the ever living crap out of that POS galax 750 he was using
But by the time you factor in a screen a psu and it not being portable anymore you could just buy a whole better used pc for the similar money and sell the laptop for a little more budget@@kwazhims3lf
I did this with my Apple Macbook Pro 2015 and it worked very well with a GTX1660ti running windows 10. Only problem was that it would only start up successfully with the GPU working 1 in 5 to 10 times so it was not without hiccups .... The E-GPU was connected trough Thunderbolt port.
You should take it to the next level and convert this into a retro game cabinet. Mount the laptop internals inside the cabinet, attach the GPU like you have shown, get an old CRT monitor and create a good old arcade cabinet. The system will be plenty powerful enough for old arcade game emulation and you'd have a nice conversation starter.
That’s a great idea, just replaced this laptop as well so it’s spare 😀
Greetings from México! Hey guy, i will take your tutorial as a guide in order to upgrade a friend's Acer Aspire Laptop. You've got a like, good man, you deserve it.
I Livestream A LOT and have a 4k camera. My Livestream video quality it garbage so this is inspiring to make my streams exponentially better.
Great video. Ive known of this but its awesome to see it done step by step. Wanted to do this to my 13 year old lenovo AIO. They made great stuff back in the day. Wanted to keep it all internal and add one of those mxm cards but this looks much easier, cheaper and more effective. Thanks
Tempted to do this with my 13 year old Probook 4430s as well lol
I've pretty much maxed out the internals in it, and the GPU is the main holdback right now
@@Iron_Sights99 yep I'm going for it soon. My old trusty AIO runs great and is still real snappy. Will comment with my results.
Very cool. Thank you!
beautifully explained.!!
Thank you for the video!
I'm flabbergasted that this is even possible. I have an old gpu and 550watt power supply, I think I'll try that just for fun!
No problem. I do it all for fun as well, many will complain it's not a great solution but tbh when it's for fun who cares.
This is so helpful. I don't have the money to get a PC, all I can do is this. I don't take my laptop anywhere bc the battery is basically gone. So, if it's already staying on my desk all the time, might as well make it good.
Oculink is the way to go, I recently modded my Steam Deck and added an external RX 7600 GPU, the difference is night and day. The Oculink kit only costs $36 on Amazon, it allows me to run Diablo4 at 1440p high settings and still gets 90+ fps. After seeing how good the Deck works, I'm getting another kit for an old laptop, it's just amazing.
does it support rtx 4070
im thinking of buying one, for cad modeling on laptop, while i save up for a pc build, where it will be used afterwards
@@darthtrump4428 Deck only works with AMD gpus.
I'd be curious to see the results with something like a rtx 3060.
Would be an interesting experiment.
do u heard about bottlenecking ??
@@TechLabUK U need to upgrade ur cpu... Running a 780 with a 2nd gen i3 and ddr3 ram.. Using this with a better laptop would be interesting to see how much the GPU is bottlenecked by the network card port
@@joemogley we used a GTX 750 in the video and you are right. Our laptop cpu sucks but it keeps running so we keep using it lol
@@TechLabUK "Our laptop CPU sucks" laughs in AMD E-300😂
Terrific. I'm believing. I think I may even have a better solution using the dvd/cd port and power from it's sata power. I'm not sure if this will make D2r playable on my satellite L875 but I'm willing to try. However, I'm worried about not having internet in case my system needs to search for drivers. I was reticent because I have a 3rd gen i3 but, I'm upgrading to a 3rd gen i7 which is a 1ghz jump with the same power load.
Experimentation... love it!
I just realized that in my computer from 2009 i used the gtx750. I didnt knew you could still use it today. Haha :) great video
They are as good as they were back then. Modern games no chance but there are 1000s of older games that will work just fine.
Hey I have a question, there was a component some time ago called "exp gdc external gpu dock" , I saw few videos people used that to do the same process. But that component is very rare now and expensive then this one. I wanna ask will this component do the same job as that one. Sorry I am new to this .
Thanks for making the video. It would be better if you could test the bottleneck of the riser. For the example, is 1050 ti run the same in the egpu setup and in the real pc setup (pcie 3.0x16) ?
maybe the performance is comparable to laptop built 1050ti which is less powerful to it's counterpart desktop 1050ti.
@@LeoNux-um7tg No it will be bottlenecked like hell, maybe a 3 fps "improvement" to the 750
Cool video! I wanted to do the same to my laptop! Can you please test how the performances change when using engineering software? For example: cad; matlab/octave; Nastram; Pastran/Femap etc...
Thank you very much :)
If they do GPU-assisted calculations the improvement is noteworthy.
Hmm should i do this i got a compaq cq58 (which literally has the same layout as this laptop on vid) that has 8gb ram, 240gb ssd (i can upgrade later) and currently a celeron b830 which i will upgrade to a core i5 3230m
So should i get a gtx 750 a psu (also the switch) and the pcie adapter?
I have a very oddball set up for a particular blizzard game I have played since 2005. I paid a premium in 2008 for a sony Vaio and to this day have it set up using an external rx 580 8gb and still play it. My mods have been the external rx 580 8gb (upgraded from an rx 290) and 16gb LT mem. I was going to break the entire laptop and use it in parts on a bench but the 15.6 monitor has been solid and aside from gen x losers and tryhards, the game I play runs amazing like this. My personal desktop build is miles beyond this and I use it for current titles but its fun to use a LT that would have otherwise become ewaste.
edit: forgot to mention my external psu is a super old 2015 evga 500w psu that is 2 times more than I need to power a crappy old rx 580 8gb. By crappy, i mean amazing for what it is used for
Nice external GPU mod. Is it using just x1 lanes as I think you said previous device did? Seems even more impressive if so. Wonder if there's a way you can use more lanes somehow
Believe they are 1x but on lower end / older GPUs we have never noticed enough of a difference especially with what you are playing on them.
@@TechLabUK Ah cool, seems to work pretty well yeah. Nice.
@@rugby187gaming Worked straight away and we also realised how well the GTX 750 still performed which was nice lol
do you know of an EXP GDC Beast would work with the pcie that is in thos laptop?
Thanks for making the video! I am a little confused though. i would like to do this with my hp gaming 16 laptop. the wifi card looked as though it was a different form factor than the mini pcie. Didn't look like the pci e slot would fit with the mini pcie adapter shown here. am i missing something? the wifi card is a realtek rtl8822ce 802.11ac pcie. am kinda a newbie at these things. thanks!
What is the specs for the cord, I mean voltage, function, amperage, frequency, scientific princibles?
Could I use an external Power supply for the external GPU on my desk top without frying my PC? I'm just wondering the compatibility with an external ATX GPU for my GPU while also having the rest of the PC running off of my much weaker HP Proprietary power supply.
Wonderful, could this be used to fine tune a neural network?
I'd LIKE to use my laptop in a "2-Head" configuration , turning it into something ACTUALLY useful , more than just for gaming . Is there a way in the bios to set it so that it can see BOTH the internal gfx AND the external ?

this will work way better when usb4 is around for old parts. personally i don't like having to disassemble the laptop to plug the gpu
ADT-Link TB is best for Macbooks over USB-C
I can't wait to make mine
Awesome!
Where do i find the video TechLabUK about the bios pcie connection?
I have a Dell 11th gen i7 with GeForce rtx 3050 ti notebook edition. With 16 GB ram on the PC. I like to video edit, however the program I use, davinchi resolve, is quite taxing, and I am looking to make it a bit more smooth.
Can you use a hdmi dongle to make it display on the integrated display?
I still cant see a real world scenario where i want to use that, but its fun and educative and interesting to see its working actually😉 good one👍👏
We do it for fun more than anything. We see something that peaks our interest or someone askes us about it and we have to try it out and share what we find.
yeah the cash and expertise needed for this should really go into building a barebones desktop but its a step into the direction of laptop modularity.
I do. I have a child that would like to play some games on a laptop but I'm not spending a ton of money to get him one. What I do have though are 2 older HPs that never get used and my old desktop that blew out the CPU but still has a functional PS and Asus GT640 in it. A riser cable for under $10 bucks and the boy has a PC he can play some games on. I like that
I’m currently in a real world situation where I need to use this lol. Long story but I can explain if you’re interested.
I do. I have an old laptop I need to use for video editing. The GPU and CPU are fine for playback, editing etc.. but rendering is very slow. Rendering is GPU accelerated, but because the GPU is older it doesn't perform really well. I'm looking into either using an external GPU or using a cloud rendering service. The reason why I don't just buy a better computer is because I already have a better computer (desktop), but I can't bring it with me for a 5-month trip that I'm doing. And I wouldn't want to buy a new laptop only for that short period of time.
Thanks bro 🙂👍
No problem. hope you get some good gaming out of it.
Hi, I have this exact laptop model at home and i just bought the exact same pcie 16x riser adapter but I have a nVidia Geforce GTX 680.. will my setup have slighyly better performance than your setup? And will i be able to use the laptop's screen instead of connecting it to an external monitor?
Could you do this with a HP Probook 445 G7?
That's awesome
Nice improvement on Tomb Raider, would Stray and other newer games run better with a better gpu or would it be limited on the speed of the pcie slot?
They would run a lot better even through the MiniPCIe slot. It will hit a limitation eventually but the GTX 750 is just a real slow card. Will trying something much bigger soon and see how far it will go, might hit CPU limit before the slot though on that old laptop lol
Great idea for gaming with low energy consumption, I have a 4th gen laptop laying around maybe I could undervolt it to use even more less energy😉👌
Very nicely explained, I just had an doubt.
I have an dell inspiron 3585 and I regularly carry it around for college ,etc.
Is it possible that I can use two usb connections instead of one? ie one usb from the wifi card slot and other from the gpu. there will be a connection using the existing usb port (it will be removed as it is a independent board and will install the usb from the wifi card). please let me know.
thankyou!
It should work, this was an idea of ours to install a mounted usb for such :)
@@TechLabUK Thankyou, will surely try
will there be any performance drops?
the igpu hd4000 was strong so much so it can run farcry3 in 60fps
Let's push the limits on the power of the gaming card.
Cool!
Hi, amazing video! I'd like to ask, do you get the gpu's full performance or is it somehow bottlenecked?
The GPU would be limited due to the 1x PCIe but the effect all depend son the GPU really.
This is greatttt
It's an interesting and fun thing to play with, especially if you have limited funds and an old laptop lying about.
Will it still work if you plug it back into the latop?
Hi! Good content! May i ask if what maximun gpu (latest that i can use as external gpu too) can i put on my laptop. On pcie slot too (removing wifi card). My laptop model is MSI GS702QC (dgpu 960m) core i7-4720HQ.
Not 100% sure, using this method will make the card run on a PCIe x1 slot so anything super fast will be restricted a lot. I think you could get away with a GTX 1650 level card maybe even slightly faster but I am kind of guessing.
@@TechLabUK thank you!
going to try . i have an asus g75 with a geforce 580. It actually plays games quite well but it is a 580..... i have a gtx 1080 just laying around so going to see 🙂
What laptop were you using there cuz it looks like my hp probook 6470b
I don't understand why the laptop was sending signals to the gpu while the vice versa was supposed to happen. Also what actually happened with the igpu of the laptop after connecting the external gpu?
The cables can easily be removed right? So the laptop remains portable?
Would this work on HP probook 650 G4 ?
Interesting to see this with a low power low profile card that without a psu
can i use usb-c 3.0 to use a low-mid range gpu on my laptop ( IdeaPad 3 ryzen 5 )
regarding performance, how does installing a graphics card on a 1x pcie lane affect performance? how much would i lose from the overall card performance
Depends on the gpu. Lower end stuff gtx 75ti, RX 560 etc nothing really.
so it means that if i uses GTX 750 ti for my egpu, i don't need to get a external power supply, right?
i have an acer nitro 5 2022 3050 laptop, and it as a thunderbolt usb c port, idk abt a pci slot which it might. i also got a spare 1660 super i want to try and get it working with
Would this work on my laptop as It already has a 930mx. But it’s not that powerful, but can I still use an external GPU. So my question is would it work.
Perfect..
What can i do with this... got a great deal on z2 mini 5 with no hard drive, and 16gigs ram so I'm going to put 32 gigs in and a 2tb ssd, has i7 10700 10th gen, but is there anyway to add external gpu to handle lets say 75% all games. It has dimm2 slot, nvme/sata extra with a ss10 and lighting bolt, 3 display ports, and i think 4 10 ss usb and either net, Bluetooth,wifi etc pretty sure i cant basic game with it NVIDIA Quadro P620 4 GB GDDR5 but thought id ask, since i need to buy a hard drive first i wamted to ask options.
Can this be done with the Lenovo Idea Lad Gaming 3?
I was gonna buy one with an Rtx 3060 ti
What PSU do you recommend
But what if it doesn't support thunderbolt? And only has a normal Type-C USB3.2 Gen2? And without giving up my Wi-Fi? I mean ive got other ways enthernet, external Wi-Fi 6 dual antenna. But still the laptops Wi-Fi 6 is pretty good.
Hi, thank you very much for the video. Although I have a problem, I changed the Primarily display to IGFX on advanced settings, and also DDU all of the graphic drivers, and uninstalled MSI overclocking application. Unfortunately my Laptop (Acer E5-573G) with EXP GDC 8.5 NGFF key won't be detected unless I hot plug it after booting the system with Wifi card, disabling the port on device manager, put the laptop to sleep and then remove the wifi card, connect the Ngff key, then enable the port again. But after installing the driver (AMD for RX580) and restarting, the Driver won't be able to detect the eGPU and on device manager it also dissapears. Is it possible that it happens because my bios (InsydeH20 rev5) is have a whitelisting that prevents me from using the eGPU? cause i also tried running the eGPU on an external monitor but it won't work. Like no display at all.
gtx 1050ti is it good to use too? i got hp elitebooi g1 have core i5 4th gen w/ 16gb ram
Would have been interesting to see what a modern graphics card would be like on an old laptop
This laptop is no longer in use but I do still have it so might drag it back out again and drop something bigger on it for fun.
the 20% performance loss is not worth it, tried it before not practical anymore to use higher gpu than gtx 1050 ti. maybe m.2 laptops can have better performance like 15% performance loss compared to 16x pcie slot?
Laptops with TB or usb4 can connect externally to such adapters? Can you tell where find adapter for graphics card but use only USB 4 or Thunderbolt 3 or above connectors, not open inseide the PC or Laptop?
You will need an External GPU Enclosure with the right connection. You can buy them but they aren't cheap.
@@TechLabUK yes, i have such in mind... thanks for your reply... i just look for cheap options, adapters like this in the video, but connected externally that may use usb4 for data and usb-c or usb 3.2 for power... not any internal connection... drop a comment here if you find anything...
@@lse123polis Not saying something doesn't exist, I have just not found one yet (That isn't a whole enclosure).
Could You see this PCIe board, with NVIDIA 760i GTx for external eGPU, for MacBook Pro 2015, 13.3" Retina Monitor, and OSX 12.6.6 Monterey
hi mate question i have a Lenovo Legion Go. i want to run my rtx 390 thru thunderbolt 3/4 how much would graphics card dock cost
Do I need to put the cable on Wi-Fi card ? I have same port as wifi card port near it?
I have a latest asus laptop Vivobook 14 10th generation without graphics card I decided to set up rx 580 with your method but I don't have external monitor, so hiw much fps drop would be common? If using direct laptop display
so i had a msi gf63 thin 10uc laptop, i wanted to build egpu, but it doesn't have thunderbolt port, as i know the wifi wlan slot could work with egpu, but idk which cable could work, NGFF or Mini pciE, since the wifi card had Mini pciE head but only 1 screw and the mini pciE cable had 2 screw in the back, also the wifi card interface is ncvio 1 and intel 9462ngw, if you guys know anything lmk
on the other hand you could find a used desktop and shift the graphics card in there chances are you wouldn't even need a power supply ... for example ..go to a thrift store and sort thru their used desktops if you can find one with a decent cpu and power supply there you have the case ,motherboard and all the basics ... install a graphics card and a solid state hard drive ...for about the same money or just a little more you have a machine that will play most games pretty well ... when you have the resources you can upgrade it ...something you have a hard time doing with a laptop ...just something to think about ...?
I have an HP ryzen 5 pro 2500 cpu. Will i get better performance if i add something like gtx 1070 or 1080?
Hey bro great video! I have a question.
I have an old pci non pcie sound card, I really like it. I've already discovered that there are adapters on the market similar to the one you showed in the video, but they turn a pcie 1x input into old pci.
Do you think I will be able to connect my pci card to the laptop? Note: It needs drivers to work but I have them. 😸
I have no idea about those adaptors but if they do work in converting a PCIe stot to a PCI slot I can't see why it wouldn't.
Hello . Why u didn't check GPU-z first ,and turned off power savings . Anyway ,nice setup . Cheers .
Could i make my pc'motherboard as an eGPU: connect the motherboard to electricity (disconnect all other cables: hdd...) And connect the graphics card to my laptop hdmi and to sata slot on laptop'motherboard?
Does rtx 2060 super works with dell inspiron 15 5000 core i5-6200u laptop or what is maximum gpu that it can handle
Hey bro, can I upgrade my Dell E6540 laptop I’m get Low FPS in gameplay
How did you modify the power supply to work from the power switch?
Basically removed all the ATX wires that weren't needed, redirected the ATX on trigger cables to the rear switch and soldered them there. It was an old PSU I wanted to just use on the bench as a tester.
I'm wondering if this also works if the graphics card in my laptop does not work? I have a Asus TUF F15 laptop and last year, it stopped working. A friend who knows a little more about computers than I do, told me that I'd have to replace the motherboard as well as the CPU and GPU. He also told me I wouldn't be able to do it myself, and that he wouldn't even touch it. From what I know, it can become quite costly to get this done by a professional (although the laptop was quite expensive and so I think it'd still be worth it). But after watching this video, I'm wondering if this set up is possible for my laptop. I really don't want to give up on it just yet...
For more modern laptops, would it work with a Thunderbolt cable attaching to it to the USB-C port?
Yeah.
Hi...Need GPu Rieser for laptop Hp 17 cp-0278cp.....any idea?
Great video, I have an HP Elitebook 8560p with 3rd gen Core i5, 8GB ram, 256 GB SSD, and an external AMD Radeon 7750 GPU, can I plug in a normal new GPU like say 4060/RX 6700, will it work (PCI-Gen is older since the laptop is a 3rd gen Intel era from 2011/2012? Will it work properly despite the possible CPU bottleneck, and PCI-E gen is older in the mobo?, will it horrible, I can upgrade the ram to 16 GB very easily and cheaply, also, regarding the PSU for this setup in mind, will it work without plugging the 24 pins to any mobo, I mean I would only need the GPU power through 6/8 pin connector from the PSU, will the PSU work without plugging the 24 pin plug to any mobo as it is not needed for my case/a laptop, I really appreciate your answer in advance.... Thanks 👍
If you already have it working then sure. The PCIe Gen will mean the card will limited but you should also check to see what GPU is more aligned to your CPU anyway otherwise you will be losing a lot of performance.
Nice video br, please provide link to purchase the riser
Thanks. Links are provided in the video description.
i have dell latitude e6540 with an empty pcie slot for a msata card but dell no lpnger supports that, can't just use that space and keep the wfi card in!!?? i have the wifi 6e card and i need that for to keep my games updated while playing my cloud games!!😢
No idea, if it's PCIe and the bios allows for it then it could work.
I have issues.
I have a Hp probook 4530S and ive used 3 different risers and multiple gpus and i cant get any of them to work.
(Risers used, EXP-GDC beast 8.4 with mini pcie, mini pcie to pcie 16x riser amd the mining riser shown in the video.
Gpus i used, AMD HD5450 1gb, GTX 970, GTX 1070, GTX 1080, GTX Titan X (maxwell). Soon il try a GTX 750ti 4gb maybe it will work or not.
Was told by the riser sellers i need a modded bios which doesmt exist
Bro maxed out the starting weapon 💀💀
🤣
I have a 2019 or maybe 2020 zephyrus rog laptop 2060 max q
Can I add a rtx3060 external gpu?
hi sir, i just want to ask that if it automatically change the gpu from the built in one to that modify gpu without any adjusting on the settngs of the laptop?
thanks!
Should auto switch but sometimes you need to go into the bios and change the PCIe settings.
