    Question Motherboard selection and PCIe x16 ?

    Maybe i am misunderstanding exactly how PCIE lanes work. But i am pretty sure that if a PCIE x16 slot ONLY has x8 lanes. Then it can ONLY have / recognize 2 M.2 x4 drives? I am not referencing speed. I am referencing the number of possible M.2 SSD's that can be operational on the Motherboard...

    Question Motherboard selection and PCIe x16 ?

    I just edited the post. Forgot to add relevant information. My bad. Planning on getting the 9950X3D, and AM5 Motherboard. I was looking at boards that had 2 PCIE slots and 3 M.2 slots.

    Question Motherboard selection and PCIe x16 ?

    It is a simple question. I am looking for a Motherboard that has 2 PCIe x16 slots with BOTH using x16 mode simultaneously. I want a GPU, and a NVME M.2 adapter to run 4 M.2 SSD's at the same time. Since the M.2 SSD requires 4 PCIe lanes. that means 4 x 4 = 16 lanes. However, on PCPartPicker. I...

    Question Windows 10 downloaded AMD Driver. Now AMD Software: Adrenalin Edition is NOT working?

    I have no clue what DDU is. Also, would not just deleting the Windows 10 driver that was downloaded, fix the problem? Unless the Windows 10 driver ALSO removed the AMD Adrenalin driver when installing?

    Question New PC Build Help.

    """"DDR4 works roughly 50% faster if it's in pairs so 2x8GB would be more effective"""" - How? Why would that be the case? That literally does not make sense. Can you elaborate or give an example? Maybe a youtube video demonstrating the fact?

    I merely observed that it was there. I tried googling, which was somewhat helpful. I then tried to initialize the SSD, which lead to create simple volume (which i had never heard of before).
