Hey all,
I am interested in adding a high end sound card and a decent capture card to my computer. I don't have a super strong grasp of how slots share lanes and how they effect each other when they are in use.
Would adding those two things in any way effect my graphics cards ability to perform at its best? below is detailed PCI info if thats at all helpful.
Thanks!

- 1 x PCI Express x16 slot, running at x16 (PCIEX16)
* For optimum performance, if only one PCI Express graphics card is to be installed, be sure to install it in the PCIEX16 slot. - 1 x PCI Express x16 slot, running at x8 (PCIEX8)
* The PCIEX8 slot shares bandwidth with the PCIEX16 slot. When the PCIEX8 slot is populated, the PCIEX16 slot operates at up to x8 mode. - 1 x PCI Express x16 slot, running at x4 (PCIEX4)
* The PCIEX4 slot shares bandwidth with the M2Q_32G connector. The PCIEX4 slot will become unavailable when an SSD is installed in the M2Q_32G connector. - 3 x PCI Express x1 slots
(All of the PCI Express slots conform to PCI Express 3.0 standard.)
