I'm planning to build a mining rig with 12 RTX A5000. (230Watts per one) i want to use only pcie cables no molex/sata for risers is there any psu that contains enough 6 pins connectors ? thanks

I am trying to understand why I cannot get my Samsung 970 EVO Plus to run at 3.0x4 in the m.2 slot. I have tried different bios settings that I thought would help but I could only get this to run at 3.0x1 in the m.2 slot. I purchased an adapter card for the pcie slot and the 970 will run at...

Hello! This is the first time I ask about anything on a forum, and you get why - I am totally stumped now with my issue. I try to figure out what is the problem. Here are all the details: My specs: MSI Z390 Edge Gaming Intel Core I9 9900 AORUS RTX 2070 CORSAIR 2×8GB Hard Drive 4 TB PHISON SSD...

Hello, I bought an AX3000 to install mostly for the bluetooth hoping it would be relatively painless to install. After installing the card on my Gigabyte B450M DS3H, I loaded Windows and neither the Wifi nor bluetooth were working. I also couldn't find it in device manager. I then used the...

If I plug a PCIe 4x sound card (soundblaster AE-5 Plus) into a PCIe 4.0 1x slot, will the sound card's performance be severely downgraded?

Build Specs: ASUS Crosshair VIII Formula AMD 3900X 64 GB DDR4 3200mhz RTX 2080 Ti Samsung 980 Pro 2TB x 2 (one is Windows boot other is extra storage) OS: Win11 (Pro I believe?) I haven’t the faintest idea as to what the heck is going on here. My desktop is running Win11, with the most recent...

Ok here’s my question… I have a 2 1/2 year old Samsung 970 Pro NVMe drive as my primary with OS on it. It died. I replaced with a clone on a SSD. my question is this… if I return it to Samsung to take advantage of the warranty, how much of my activity/ desktop could they possible take from it...

I get an AGP error on my ROG STRIX RTX 2070 from my gigabyte b450m ds3h motherboard. One long beep, 3 short beeps. All the lights turn on, and the fans spin up but then turn off. GTX 1080ti works well on the same motherboard. Is there anything I should try before I bring it to an expert? Or if...

As the title suggests -and I know this has been asked before- I am having a problem figuring out if it's a bad PCI-e slot or a bad GPU. I have a MSI Armor RX570 4gb, AMD; and I have been using it normally for the past two years (bought it early 2020). I bought it with one year of usage, but...

Hi guys! I have a issue. Please help me And yeah, I have seen that this topic has been touched many times but before screwing up something I would like to know your opinion. I have been reading the manual of my motherboard and there is something that bothers me and I can't figure it out. (My...

Hello everybody, Here's my system. https://pcpartpicker.com/user/yilmazsen/saved/R9y7hM I have an intel 7820x processor (Link) with 28 PCIe lanes. My cpu's PCIe lanes are used by X2 nvidia 3090 gpu's and a single nvme ssd. I want to add another nvme ssd to my system. Do you think I will have...

Hi everyone. Please let me know if i have chosen my components correctly. I am really confused about pcie lanes and if i have enough because the ryzen 5 5650g has 12 pcie lanes. I chose these components because of the price availability in my country - South Africa. I am planning to get the...

My new laptop came with a small PCIE m.2 SSD, which is its only hard drive, and I now want to replace it with a 1TB Crucial P5 Plus. I haven't done this before, but I think I will just physically replace the SSD, and then do a clean install of windows 10 via USB. Is this procedure correct? Or...

Motherboard: MSI B550 Tomahawk I currently have 2 Gen3 M.2 NVMe SSD in both M.2 Slots in the motherboard however I'd like to expand the storage using PCI-E to M.2 adaptor. GPU in PCI_E1 covers the PCI_E2 and I have a wifi/bt card on PCI_E4. I'd like to know if I could use the adapter on...

Hi, Just want to ask your expert opinion regarding my concern below. Full Specs: Ryzen 3 3300X OC'ed to 4.3ghz @ 1.275v Asrock B450M Steel Legend Sapphire Nitro+ 6600XT 8GB (Driver version 12.12.1) 2x8gb Patriot Viper Steel 2666mhz WD SN550 500GB M.2 NVME Samsung 860 EVO 500GB M.2 SATA...

So as you can see on the topic, I would like to know how are the SSD speeds of PCIe 4.0 disk in a 3.0 slot. Am I at least possible to get the maximum speed that the 3.0 slot can give from the 4.0 disk? As an example; What would be the speed of a Samsung 500GB 980 Pro (M.2) in the 3.0 slot? And...

Im looking for a good 1tb ssd that will work in my mobo. I think the WD SN570 would work but it is a sata ssd and I already have the nvme sata ssd port taken so it won’t work. I am looking for one that will work in the first m.2 slot on the ASrock B500m pro4. Thanks

Silly question. I am about to update to a 12th gen. system, and I already have a RTX2070 with PCIe 3.0. Motherboard would be a Z690 ROG Strix -f. Is PCIe 5.0 backwards compatible with 3.0? Will the motherboard adjust bus speeds automatically? Thanks in advance.

Alright, so I have a conundrum. I think because I want to have more NVMe drives in my system I am messing with my graphics card and making stuff crash. Specifically I had a few times where Halo Infinite has either crashed on me or restarted my computer, no blue screen code or anything, this was...

Full model: Kingston 500GB A2000 SSD M.2 NVMe PCIe 3.0 SA2000M8/500GB I can see its "PCIe 3.0 x4" yet my motherboard has "NVMe PCIe Gen2 x2 2280 M.2 Connector" will it work? Thank you!

Good day, I'm currently looking for a 1TB M.2 NVME that has excellent REAL WORLD performance, I don't really give much emphasis if a lot of the NVME drives today have very fast speeds when it comes to synthetic benchmarks since these are SYNTHETIC BENCHMARKS. I'm looking for a drive that can...

In the UEFI you can set the GPU's PCIE lane version on what version you want it, my question is if you set the lane to.....let's say version 3.0, will the lane of the NVME drives also change to that version? Correct me if I'm wrong and I am surely wrong, to my knowledge or how I understand NVME...

in cpuz it says my gpu is at pcie gen 4 x8 8gt/s but also says max supported x16 16gt/s even under full load it does not change is there anything I can do about this?

Hello everyone, I am about to buy a new macbook pro M1pro/max for video editing and I am not clear about the size of internal storage as it's often recommended to seperate OS & software from footage and media cache. So I thought taking a smaller internal drive + an external Thunderbolt 3 drive...

I'm starting to consider building a new PC partly to get past some current issues and bring it more up-to-date for the SSD world we're in now. However, at least for my Skylake-era PC, I've found that PCI lanes became a concern I never had before. While in previous PCs I'd have fun adding...

I am soon upgrading my GPU and PSU to support the new power requirements my system will need, my problem however is that the PCI-E cable in my current graphics card is kind of stuck. I was practicing messing around with taking out the PSU for when I had to and I only tried with the PCI-E cable...

Hi Guys, I'm puzzled and I can't seem to find the good answer online!!! Searched everywhere... I have a MB Asrock H510 pro btc: 6x PCIe 3.0 x16 slots but 1@x16 and 5@x1... and a miner port M_Port1 at x1. We put a CPU Intel G6400 which has max 16 PCIe lanes and GPU execution units 12. The GPU's...

Hi! I bought a Gigabyte P1000GM and I need to power up four RX 580 (six pins) and four Risers (also six pins) ATM. I bought a pair of 16AWG 6 to 6+2 PCI-e cables. The thing is that this Modular PSU has 8 pin PCI-e slots, not 6 as the cable I purchased. The question is. Is it safe to plug the...

In the manual to this ASUS Prime Z590-a motherboard, there is a page dedicated to shared bandwidth on Page XI. What is strange to me is that the PCIEX4 is unspecified. It's clear from the image, charts, and reading the manual that: PCIEX16_1, PCIEX16_2, and PCIEX16_3 share lanes M.2_2 and...

I have just recently set up a new mining rig that is currently running with 6 gpus on my EVGA Z97 FTW motherboard with a i5-4690k CPU. I tried to run 8 cards originally on the system but it would not boot with more than 6 cards plugged in. 3 of the cards are plugged in using a pcie 4-way...

Well, I want to build a rig, in a MSI x470 with 2x RTX 3060 wich will be mining 24/7 and use my old 1050 ti just for gaming, pluged in the last pcie port of the board. The problem is that I want to use a ryzen 1500x wich has 20 pci lanes 16 for graphics and 4 for storage, and when plugging the...

So I have the MAG Z590 TORPEDO mobo, and I was wondering if I used two m.2 slots if I would be taking a hit on performance, as my one M.2 is PCIE4.0. Would It slow down each m.2 to x2 lanes instead of x4? Since the GPU has x16 and that leaves x4 to the m.2 if I'm correct.

I bought a new ssd crucial p2 500GB to upgrade by old PC a bit. My motherboard gigabyte ga-z97p-d3 doesn't support m.2 so I had to get an adapter card. Bought some cheap chinese <Mod Edit> adapter to be able to plug in the ssd. Everything works fine except my drive is quite a bit slower than...
