Im looking to upgrade to an I7-4700k (yes, thats considered an upgrade for me.)
Anyways, I was wondering, on the spec sheet it says that the MAX pcie lanes is 16, that being said, I also want to put an x4 pcie to M.2 adapter such as this https://www.amazon.com/SilverStone-Technology-PCI-E-Adapter-ECM20/dp/B01798WOJ0/ref=sr_1_1?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1476344672&sr=1-1&keywords=m.2+to+pcie with a 1070 or 1070ti as the gpu, how much performance would I lose with either one of them? is it even worth doing?
