PCI-E 3.0 with "zen+" CPU might be an issueArvosana 4/5
Setup: B450 chipset, Ryzen 2700x, latest NVIDIA drivers, latest BIOS = PCI-E 3.0, latest Windows 11. This card, MSI 5060 Ti 16GB, didn't work. In BIOS got VGA mode, in Windows just black screen. (Check forums, issue is popular)
Setup: X570 chip, Ryzen 5950x, latest NVIDIA drivers, 2 y.o. BIOS = PCI-E 4.0, latest Windows 11. This card, MSI 5060 Ti 16GB works.
Power connector IS NOT 1 × 16-pin as specified in card! Power connector is old, regular 6+2 PIN.
About performance: In Superposition Benchmark (8k Optimized) got 4826 points. Which is matched with other performance checks in the Internet. No complaints here.
Noize: No coil whine! (super good) Fans are avarage loud, nothing special, just fine. During Superposition Benchmark max temperature was 77 C (my PC case is avaragly good in ventilation perspective, but not the best).
4 starts because: 1) Power connector is not the same as specified, should be 16-pin, but in reality 6+2 PIN; 2) PCI-E 3.0 for this particular card with zen+ CPU's architecture is not supported in my case.
