X399 Rog Zenith PCIE Switch

Hi,
I‘ve often asked myself how the correct usage of the PCIE switch on the ROG Zenith looks like. It isn‘t exactly specified in the manual.
Do you leave the PSU cables connected to the graphicscard, and just use the switch? Or do you unplug power first?
I‘ve never used it because I‘m really scared to break anything.
Thanks for any help!*

Of course you do!:eek:

Use the switches to isolate a GPU without having to physically remove it from the board but with power off....always power off making any adjustments.

Personally I remove power from GPU too...i.e.disconnect cables to GPU that I'm isolating

Hi, okay that was bad wording from me - of course you don‘t use the switch with a running system :D
My question was just if I have to remove the power cable going to the graphicscard I want to deactivate with the switch, before turning the computer on again.*
Thanks for your reply!*
