I’m weak bought hahahaha

I bought a 4TB SN850X this year and I plan to keep it for a loooooong time. My cpu (10700k) limits me to pcie 3.0 speeds but it's still plenty fast.

yeah so when you use a gen 5 slot the CPU will need to split the 16 lanes and leave only 8 for your GPU. But as I said i'm not sure there's much performance difference when using x8 vs x16 on the GPU side because even the 4090 is only pci 4, so pci 5 x8 is essentially pci4 x16 I believe.

I just happened to come across this video while going through this thread:



If you get one, make sure you've got some airflow blowing across it.

I currently have 2 990 pro Samsung ssd and was thinking of buying this will I see a difference in gaming?

How is your system currently bi-furicating the motherboard's PCIe lanes across slots for devices, currently?

Looking at the headline bandwidth of the nvme and looking to the future with better utilisation of a Gen 5 nvme - assuming you buy it - would you need to change the lane to slot/port configuration (bifurication) to supply adequate lanes to for that 12GB/s bandwidth? And if so, does your board supply enough PCIE bandwidth for the GPU, your existing Gen 4 drives at full bandwidth and the new nvme at full bandwith?

In a thread yesterday - a new build of AMD 7800 - someone said they and their PC shop couldn't get the gen 5 drive working on their board to install Windows, dropping back to a gen 4, and my first thought was they might have needed to manually bifuricate to use the drive.

Not at all remotely worth it. Gen 5 also runs VERY hot and you will likely be throttling to Gen 4 speeds anyway.

A 990 with the latest firmware is a good choice.

Well my order already shipped so they cannot cancel my order

Be sure to post benches and temps when you get it though!

Holy moly that is fast. Does it feel any snappier in windows or usage?

 

[OverHeat]

Only tested it in games loading time are a joke in ratchet lol

Gotcha, thanks. I wish Intel's boards had more pci-e gen 5 lanes. Looks like AMD's ahead in this area.

Kind of weird, because Intel beat them to the punch on gen 5. Yet here we are with only AMD providing more lanes with a dedicated x4 allotment.
