  1. I recently had to replace my Boot drive as it died recently, while doing this i decided to install my old GTX 660. It is an OEM card I got for 60 (Aussie) bucks a few years ago. It held up remarkably back then (about 2019) as I could run most of the games I was interested in on low-medium settings. I know that since then the 600 series lost driver support and so forth, and I know it definitely isn't going to perform as well today as it did back then. I also know that the RTX 2060 super is starting to get old but would absolutely demolish any 600 series card every day of the week. My thinking was that my 2060 super can be my primary GPU and the GTX 660 can supplement it by doing secondary tasks. In short, my thinking was to have the GTX 660 serve as a load spreader. My goal was to extend things until I can afford a new GPU. As replacing either card is not an option for me currently. I have always rathered keep old stuff useful, I hate the idea of just throwing old tech in landfill as soon as it gets even slightly too old. I know this sounds more like a justification, but I guess my real question is that instead of turning old tech into e-waste; What should we, as gamers, do with our old graphics cards?
  2. I'm new here but I've had an intriguing question that has been on my mind for some time, and this fantastic community I think is well placed to help answer it. CFexpress 2.0 uses the PCIe 3.0 specification and the NVMe standard, and it is (if not obvious) a nand based storage medium. Type A is PCIe x1 and has a speed of 1GB/s (and is about the size of an SD card) Type B is PCIe x2 and has a speed of 2GB/s (and about the size of an XQD Card) Type C is PCIe x4 and has a speed of 4GB/s (and about the size of the old Compact Flash) Since CFexpress uses the PCIe standard, it makes sense that PCIe adapters for CFexpress exist. It should also be possible to have adaptors with multiple slots without a large speed penalty. My idea is to use CFexpress Cards as what essentially amounts to a removable SSD. So my question is whether this is even possible. Is it possible, using a PCIe adaptor, to connect a CFexpress Card and use it as an SSD.
