[SOLVED] PCIe lanes on Asus ROG Crosshair VIII Formula

[basile.maeder]

Hi all,
I plan to buy build a new system but like many other people, I’m really confused about PCIe lanes.
The idea is to get a Ryzen 9 3950x and an Asus ROG Crosshair VIII Formula motherboard.
With this I’ll have 2x M.2 nvme ssd (gen3), 2x Sata SSD, 3x Sata HDD, an Nvidia RTX card and I also plan to use an Elgato 4k60 (mk2) capture card.

could you please tell me if I’ll have enough pcie lanes and if my GPU will still run x16 ?

thanks in advance to help me clarify this

Yes and yes. Nvme and SATA draw from chipset pcie which is separate from CPU pcie that goes to GPU and capture card.

Thanks a lot for your very quick feedback. So I’ll go with this one of the nvme will go on CPU pci lane or am I wrong ?
