How is that even possible?
gpu-z and Trixx said the card is running at PCIE 1.1 x 16.
Which is impossible since the P67 doesn't even have 1.1 slots.
AIDA says the card is inserted in a 2.0 slot.
CCC says the card is running at x16.
CPU-Z also says it's at x16.

Some sort of false detection bug with the 1.1?
 
Check it under load. I know that Nvidia cards run at 1.1 mode when downclocked, so could be the same for AMD. Mine jumps back and forth when checked with GPU-z.
