Hi will be building my pc and dunno if im being stupid or not with my M.2 drives but in the manual it says
" If M2_5 is occupied, PCIE1 will downgrade to x8 mode "
Not really sure what this means and were to plug both my m.2 drives into the motherboard.
Specs :
Motherboard : ASRock Z790 PG SONIC
Storage: Kingston KC3000 1TB PCIe 4.0
Kingston KC3000 2TB PCIe 4.0
GPU: Rx 7900 xtx (When it comes out)
What i don't understand is were to plug both my drives onto the motherboard and will it downgrade my gpu performance if i plug it into that m2.5 space?
I cant post any images but the link to the manual - Page 6 is what the board looks like : https://download.asrock.com/Manual/Z790 PG SONIC.pdf
And the boards looks like this : https://www.asrock.com/mb/Intel/Z790 PG SONIC/img/hero/1.png
I assume the first drives goes under M2_1 and then my second would go under M2_3 because both of these have the headsink? Again sorry if i'm being stupid but just trying to learn
Thanks
