Budget (including currency): I don't even care anymore... I just want to see this happen at all! Country: United States Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: Primarily gaming, but for IA-32, ARM, amd64, and ARM64 games running natively. Also, the ability to basically be the ultimate software compatibility machine in the universe with the ability to be compatible with the universe itself. Other details (existing parts lists, whether any peripherals are needed, what you're upgrading from, when you're going to buy, what resolution and refresh rate you want to play at, etc): Preferably in the E-ATX form factor, ATX is better but less likely, as there obviously needs to be two CPU sockets. Is there any such attempt at ever making this happen? Obviously, I don't care about keeping the machine small, so don't worry about it becoming too large. This is similar in concept to one machine that had both an 86 and a Z80 processor onboard to be able to run CP/M applications for both Z80 and 86! Normally, if one wanted to upgrade to an 86 CP/M machine, they would have to give up Z80 application support. I don't really know too much about this either, I just know that it sounds awesome from a software compatibility perspective, even from a time where complete and utter incompatibility and complete lack of standardization was the expectation.

I apologize if this comes across as a highly idiotic question, but I've honestly never really put serious thought into it and have suddenly encountered something that brought it up...but if you have a motherboard with a chipset built around PCI-E 3.0 for example, and the 16X slot is linked to the CPU, and the mechanical interface (pinout) between generations is the same, if you upgrade CPUs that span PCI-E generations (ex. Zen 1 vs. Zen 3 (at least the ones that actually are 4.0)), you still don't get PCI-E 4.0 suddenly on the CPU-linked x16 slot and/or NVMe M.2 slot, even in terms of speeds, correct? I'm guessing no. I know there are other changes between generations, but since there's mechanical compatibility, that thought just passed my brain. The chipset obviously isn't changing unless the motherboard is swapped. Also, yes, I know that there's very little that's going to push the x16 3.0 bus. Scaling on the 4090 shows maybe a 3% drops between generations.

Hello all, I come to seek help and suggestions from you all. Currently I have an MSI B-450 A Motherboard. The latest Chipset drivers from AMD are installed as well as the latest UEFI version. Windows 10 1909 is installed as of now. (I will be updating now to eliminate this being an issue) Currently installed on the board in PCI-e slots are: NVMe drive, GTX 1070, and newly Cisco VIC 1225 Fiber Channel card in that order. The Cisco card is also installed in an R2 server I own with no issues. The latest Drives are installed from Cisco (4.2) The Card Functions as it should Only when I go into UEFI and change a setting for PCI Express, it tends to not matter what setting. For example, changing the lane size from 8x8 to 4x4x4x4 then booting to windows 10 will make the card function. Then upon restart with the same settings will get driver error and no card will show up on device manager. I have tried different settings to see if anything sticks but no luck. VEN 1137 = Cisco DEV 004E = VIC 82 PCIe Upstream Port I am also aware of this post from Cisco containing a bug, but I do not believe to be part of my issue, due to this problem occurring with these steps taken still. The only other things I can think to try are updating windows 10 to 21H2 (Idk what good that will do) or switching the physical locations of the cards. I have also tried Hack Flags in the registry, but it does not actually fix the issue. The main thing here is, what is actually causing the issue? Cisco? MSI? AMD? Windows? Meee? I know Cisco will give me a big fat L for my troubles. Thank you for any suggestions. EDIT: Windows 10 has been updated to 21H2 with no change

Big shout out to MSI for sponsoring this video! Check out all of their products we used down below. PCI Express gen 4 has been around for over a year and a half now – But it hasn’t really made much of a difference… Does that change with Ryzen 5000, RTX 3000, and Radeon 6000? Buy MSI RTX 3090 SUPRIMX X GPU (PAID LINK): https://geni.us/6dT9AXK Buy MSI Radeon RX 6900 XT (PAID LINK): https://geni.us/uVzF Buy AMD Ryzen 9 5950X (PAID LINK): https://geni.us/3eJzht

I don't really know much about this but I want to see Linus/Anthony hook up a Quadro to a Pi. Here's the article. From people who don't really want to read the whole thing here's a brief overview: Replace the USB controller with custom pcb to allow for PCIe over USB or maybe a wild Anthony will make a custom pcb, then hook up a usb cable to a weird pcb with two PCIe 16x slots. My first post by the way!

If i plug a x16 3.0 gpu to a PCI Express x16 downshifted to a x4 will it change the performance ?

Hi all, Purchased a Dell desktop (would build but for business so need an easy warranty) to use for capturing video to livestream and record. I need a x8 slot for the capture card I am using (Blackmagic DeckLink Quad HDMI), and the board only has one x16 slot (gen 3 I think) so my graphics card (AMD Ryzen Pro WX3100) i have had to put in a x4 slot. Will this have a noticeable impact on performance? Also, is a graphics card even necessary for my workload? Will be running 3 full hd PTZ cameras and one PC in all over HDMI. Planning to use Wirecast studio as the solution to stream it all. pc spec is: i7 8700 16gb DDR4 2666mhz 256gb m.2 ssd Radeon Pro WX 3100 Blackmagic DeckLink Quad HDMI capture card (x8) Would really appreciate any tips! Thanks all!

so I just picked up a second RTX 2080 (non TI), with two things in mind. if the games I play scale well and I get better performance than a 2080TI 30-50% of the time its money well spent as its cheaper. (factoring in used hardware). Also I don't game in 4k resolution only 1440p ultrawide so i don't need the extra GPU memory. With Ryzen 2 coming out I will be upgrading to X570 and the 12 core monster. As I am not familiar with PCI bandwidth restrictions I am looking for info on it. With two 2080's, 2080TI's, or RTX Titans, could any of these saturate PCI express Gen3 to its full limits? If so do you think Nvida could release a driver update to support gen 4? (I don't know if this is even possible) I have always loved running multi GPU setups and miss the days or 3-way and 4-way SLI. I personally know its not the most cost efficient way to collect more power. and can scale negatively. However, coming up on smaller and smaller architectures coming out for CPU's and GPU's I feel multi GPU setups will be the next "mainstream" enthusiast builds. As Navi and RTX will come closer and closer in performance over the next 3 years. Is any of this even a relevant thought? Please let me know what you think.

The new upcoming GPUs from AMD are using PCIe 4.0. From what I've read, it will bring double the transfer rates than PCIe 3.0, which sounds great for SSDs and non-gaming applications, but are there any advantages for gaming when using PCIe 4.0 rather than PCIe 3.0 ?

Is there some kind of splitter to turn 1 16x pcie slot to, for example, 4 4x slots? (Not mining related). Although i will plug my gpu to one of the slots the rest will be for, raid card(s) and 10gb networking. My question essentially is, is this possible (for cheap preferably) or will i have to upgrade my board? Ps. I'm using an lga1150 moba, so upgrading it will be pretty expensive since i will also have to buy ram and cpu. Thanks, in advance!

I decided to replace my GTX 960 Mini with a GTX 1070. The product page for my PC says I have a 600 W PSU but I can only see 1 6-pin connector that's connected to my current card. See image: I read that such adapter is not recommended. So do I need a new PSU? My specs: Intel Core i7-4790 (4 cores) up to 4Ghz 2Tb SATA3 7200rpm 16Gb DDR3 1600Mhz DVD-RW Super Multi ASUS GeForce GTX960 2Gb GDDR5 600W Silent PFC 12cm (I guess it's this one)

Hi! I bought an NVMe SSD without looking up a whole lot about it for black friday. Turns out my motherboard has PCIE2 slots, not PCIE 3. I was looking up some data, and I found that PCIE2x8 has the same bandwidth as PCIE3x4. Is there a way to split PCIE3x4 to PCIE2x8 so that I can use an NVMe riser card without losing bandwidth? I tried looking on google, but it only sees "PCIE3 x8" and gives me many pcie threads for GPUs. Thanks! EDIT: Changed title from 'split' to 'adapt' because 'split' implies a different thing than what I'm doing.

hp laptop Is it possible to add a PCIE mini slot?
Xinidae posted a topic in Laptops and Pre-Built Systems
I'm not sure if this is the best categorie in the forum for this question but this is what I got. My HP Envy x360 15 15-w117cl has a space where it looks like an m.2 SSD would be possible to mount but there's no PCIE mini slot on the board other than the one for the wifi card. There are contacts on the board that look like solder spots but no connector and in the instruction manual on the HP website it says there's a slot for m.2 ssds but it may be referring to a different model number since the instruction is for multiple models. I couldn't find any website selling just PCIE mini slots or in the HP part seller store. If I can't add a PCIE slot I'll just replace the HDD. It is possible that there's a PCIE mini slot on the bottom of the board but I haven't flipped it over yet and when I called up HP support to see if they could help but it was a joke. Also is it possible to add a GPU I've seen other models with a gpu on the area I circled. Thanks for anyone that can help me find some answers. -

I have a Lenovo G40-80 laptop, PF09SBYY, which is 5th generation Core i-5 5200U. I want to install a SSD into this laptop, but wondering whether I need to buy a M.2 SSD or a regular SATA SSD. Please guys help me out. I couldn't find any solution, because I don't know how to check if it supports NVME or not.

I'm looking for something really specific and I'm certain something must exist but I'm not sure. I have an issue that I live somewhere very remote and we have no internet access for a couple months. My solution in my head is finding a NIC that takes a SIM card so I can hook it up to my existing cellular plan, and later on be able to drag it out somewhere so that I can game in remote places. Preferably I want something that uses a pci port as I hate the asthetic and the design of most USB dongles. Does anyone know if something like this might possibly exist?

The known: PCI express 2.0 has a peak speed of 8 GB/s. 2.0 came out in 2007. can handle 1–5 billion transfers per second. each lane can send 500 MB/second. a 32 lane board can transfer 16 GB/second. PCI express 3.0 has a peak speed of 16 GB/s. 3.0 came out in 2010. can handle up to 8 billion transfers per second. each lane can send 985 MB/second. a 32 lane board transfers 31 GB/second. PCI express 3.0 video cards are backwards compatible to PCI express 2.0 slots. ******************************************************************************************************************************************* What are the benchmark results when comparing the same exact video card in a like for like system where 1 motherboard supports PCIe 2.0 and the other motherboard supports PCIe 3.0? Is there a noticeable difference with a 3.0 system in multiplayer online gameplay? Does the 3.0 technology mostly benefit graphics editing? Thanks, Kelso
