Is this normal? Will it effect performance? Can it be changed?

Maybe other people could check their systems and let me know....
(CPUZ, Rivatuner, Everest etc. can all be used to check)

I tried playing with the Asus PEG Link settings in the bios but could not get it to change
link width says 8x on mine in cpu-z also.... your numbers seem good... so I dont know what is up with that.... I will check it out later
I have the same mobo also... my guess, it does that because there are 2 video cards.... sli ish...
