Hello,
I've just installed a Samsung 970 PRO PCIe NVMe onto my Asus ROG Z370 MAXIMUS X HERO.
I've got a question about it:
I've installed the M.2 drive in the M.2-1 slot (the one underneath the cooling thingy), in the bios I've set the drive to PCIe mode (instead of SATA), now I expected my GPU to run at x8 and my M.2 drive at x4 because my 8700k only has 16 lanes. When I check this with GPU-z, my GPU is still running at x16, how can this be?
Can somebody explain to me how this is possible? Should I change something?
Thanks in advance <3
