[SOLVED] Would too many NVMe and M.2s slow my GPU or something like that?

[Jon_6447]

So I'm just finalizing a build with a 13900KF, MSI Z790-A PRO WIfI , RTX 3090,a pair of DDR5 RAMs, an AIO and a 1200w PSU. I have 2 1TB NVMe + one 512gb M.2 from my previous build and bought another 1TB Gen4 WD SN850x NVMe.
So this build is going to have:
1 x Gen4 NVMe
2 x Gen3 Nvme
1 x m.2
Is this going to affect my GPU performance in any way? I'm a bit of a noob when it comes to understanding the PCIe lanes and speeds and how they can be affected if the lanes are too saturated.
Thanks in advance.

I don't think you have anything to worry about Most new CPU and boards have enough lanes to not run into problems. They are unlikely to share.

[SOLVED] - Second NVMe SSD at the expense of GPU speed

Hi, I am building a small ITX system on an ASUS ROG STRIX B450-I GAMING motherboard. The mb has one x16 PCIe slot for the GPU, and 2 M2 slots for SSD. I intend to use SSD drives in both M2 slots. The mb manual reads that if there is an SSD in the second M2 slot (as it uses shared bandwidth)...

you can have all four M2 slots populated and it wont affect your GPU performance

with that mainboard yes, no issue with lane sharing, but lots of other intel mainboards offer gen5 for m2 by stealing it from GPU, which is not happening on his mainboard

That's a relief.
