You should be using all the lanes available.  The main issue with that
card is vram memory bandwidth.  Those chips have a single channel
memory interface and most OEMs populate them with DDR3 memory rather
than GDDR5.

from your log:
[    3.079577] [drm] RAM width 64bits DDR
...
[    3.082589] [drm] enabling PCIE gen 2 link speeds, disable with
radeon.pcie_gen2=0
