Hi.
Can anyone help please.
New build.
Decided to get another NVME drive.
But I read that the 1st slot on this MB splits the bandwidth with the GPU.
I have my existing M.2 in the 2nd slot because of the above. (I havnt used the PC yet.) But as I am adding a second M.2, can I use the 1st slot, without any performance loss. On, gaming, VR, Blender, etc.
MB Z90-E
Asus ROG Strix 4080
Samsung 990 PRO 2TB PCIe 4.0 <-- there would be 2 of these.
One last thing.
I am thinking of returning the existing WD_Black SN850X 2TB M.2 2280 PCIe Gen4. - - for Samsung 990 PRO 2TB PCIe 4.0 x 2.
Does anyone please know if the 990 PRO gets realy hot, the board has fitted heat shields.
Thank you for any help.
It is really appreciated.
