So I bought a h310 board since it finally came out but I just want to know if the supposed low pcie lanes will affect the performance of my gpu (gtx 1060) and or my cpu I'm gonna upgrade to (i5 8400 maybe 8500).
 
Solution
Intel's H310 chipset doesn't have PCIe 3.0 on the chipset, only 6x 2.0. You still get PCIe 3.0 x16 from the CPU.

If you want a full complement of expansion options, you need to step up to the B360 or H370.

I got the msi h310m pro-vdh lga 1151 model from newegg and what does the low pcie lanes really limit me to?
