Hey just wondering if the ability/power of an m.2 device will decrease if I use a PCI-E to M.2 card to make it work as I do not have a m.2 port.

Hello I was wondering if I would be able to use an m.2 ssd in my motherboard without a port for it. I looked online and it says I can buy an adapter for £20 but I am not sure if I will lose any power regarding the m.2 drive if I buy the two. My question is will it work, is it worth it, and are there any other alternatives. please bare in mind I don’t know much PC vocab. My motherboard is the A320M Pro-VD PRO -
Does anyone know what is lastest VGA + S-video graphic card on PCI-E with Windows XP driver support. I have professional machine that just working on XP, Need VGA + S-video for graphic output. Old PC have Chipset heating problems, now working with big custom made heatsink and 120mm cooler and have lot of random resets. Now working on AGP graphics ATI 9200SE, it works since I buy it new, now need replacement for next 5 years. Thanks to all for reply. -
Hello, i'm a new user here and i joined to ask about adaptors. i have a 750w power supply however it only has 1 pci-e 6 pin power cable. My question is: is it safe to use a 6 pin to 6+2 pin pci-e power adaptor with a graphics card that requires an 8 pin power connector? just wondering for when i eventually want to upgrade my graphics card from a 1060 3Gb to something more powerful.

Greetings! I have a eass for you question, im not sure and i want to be: so, i have old graphics card, probably its "burned" or something, is it possible to damage mother board or pci-e port? (card ATI HD 5770)

Hi, I recently bought a 'manufacture refurbished' Asus GTX 1070 Strix 8G from a recommended seller on ebay. Upon arrival I had noticed that it was missing a few resistors along the just above the PCI-E connector. The card seems to work fine no problems so far. Upon looking at GPU Z though I noticed the card is running at PCI-E X4 3.0 under load when is capable of X16. I tried my previous graphics card MSI RX 470 Gaming X in the slot just to make sure it wasn't the motherboard and was running at full X16 Gen3 speeds. Is this something that will cause me to lose performance and should I return the card as I have 12 months warranty with it? Thanks, Zeb

I will be doing an upgrade soon I will be getting an 8700K , a Gigabyte z370 AORUS Gaming 7 MOBO I will use my old evga 970 (Yes, I know it is not the best card but gets the job done, will get a new card when NVIDIA releases their new card I will get one.) I have a Samsung 860 EVO 250G NVM-E SSD for the OS I also want to get a 1TB MP500 Corsair NVM-E SSD for my Game Library and large programs. Will I have enough PCI-E lanes? I am a bit confused as to if the MOBO supports some lanes and the CPU supports others. Want to know before I pull the Trigger on my purchase.

Is there a measurable difference between using PCI-e 2.0 (x16) vs. 3.0 on my RX 580? System Specs: ASRock Z87M OC formula motherboard Intel core I7-4770k (OC to 4.2GHz) 16Gb Dual channel DDR3 memory (800Mhz) XFX RX 580 GTS Black Edition (8Gb memory (2020MHz) / core: 1440MHz)

hey i bought a new pc and it on its ways but i have a series question about some of the hardware first of all my pc is : cpu: i7 8700k 3.7GHZ-4.7GHZ 12mb cach gpu: asus rog strix 1080ti 11gb motherboard: Asus ROG MAXIMUS X HERO LGA1151v2, Intel Z370 ssd: Samsung 960 EVO M.2 MZ-V6E500BW 500GB SSD 1)my problem is that the gpu works on 16 lanes and the ssd works on 8 lanes i think , so will this affect my gpu and i will get lower fps ? 2)even if put the gpu on 16 lanes and the pcie ssd on 8 lanes , will they both work on 8 lanes (on the lower)? please help me i cant find an answer for this question and i need to give the lab answers if i want the m2 ssd or not

hey ,everyone usb 3.0 has only 9 pins while pci-e 1x uses 36 pins i've heard 18 are used for power that's still 9 missing pins and i don't see any logic on the pcie 1x side of the riser. so i was wondering how do they send all the info that's required to run pcie cards? thanks in advance here's a photo of the kinds of risers i'm talking about:

Hello This is NOT another "Is GPU X bottleneck by CPU Y ?" type of topic. I know my CPU DOES (trust me on this), and please don't even try to say to me "CPU bottlenecks don't exist", OK ? Good. Topic is for everyone interested to know, how bad can you really go with CPU Bottlenecking. Also : Please, DO NOT try to tell me how stupid I am for making this combo. I did it for tests ONLY, not to actually use this setup as my rig. Result from AIDA64 : CPU-z valid : https://valid.x86.fr/2sve04 Because I decresed FSB frequency to 380MHz (effective), and 95MHz (real) - bandwidth available to everything was reduced to 3080MB/s (theoretical). That's NOT enough to saturate a PCI-e 1.x x16 slot, let alone DDR2 memory or anything else. Here's result after OC (2,5 GHz) : CPU-z valid : https://valid.x86.fr/qewu00 Fire Strike : 1,9GHz = 113 points (LINK) 2,6GHz = 345 points (LINK) (+50% in Physics = +380% in Graphics) If someone wants a test, I can try to run it on this setup. However, this CPU doesn't support SSE3 instructions, so keep that in mind if asking for GPU benchmarks. EDIT : For comparison, result from my main rig : Fire Strike : 18 178 (LINK) (vs. Celeron after OC, it's 5268% speed up (or 52,68 times). In summary (biggest difference) : Memory Copy : 225 722 MB/s vs. 206 146 MB/s (- 9,5%) Single Precision Julia : 1945 FPS vs. 1783 FPS (- 9%) You will lose some VRAM bandwidth (interesting isn't it) and FLOP performance (however not in every case).

Person that assembled my PC forgot to move the PCIE clip, I've noticed this after 8 months of using the PC.My graphics card is pretty small and light, I haven't noticed any damage.My question is does not moving the PCIE clip cause any damage if the graphics card is screwed to the case?

I think I will be fine, however I wanted the opinion of the community on this one. I'm putting together the following system; Asus ROG Crosshair VII 2700X 1080 Ti 2x 960 Pro NVMe (RAID 0) So this MoBo will support NVMe RAID, however it will drop the x16 PCI-E slot down to x8 speed as a result. Will this incur and performance penalties on my GTX1080 Ti. Thanks for the help.

Hello guys Does anyone know if there is a way of extending the ram via a PCI-e slot I want to make a custom build PC and it has to be thinner than the height of normal ram I don't that much about performance

I have no idea whatsoever in which category to post such question but I'll give it a try here given why I'm looking for such thing. I'm looking for some pci-e 3.0 pci-e riser x16 -> 4x4. It'd be nice if it was powered to avoid motherboard overload but It's not required. The only thing suitable for PC I found for now is Asus HYPER M.2 x16 card using additionally 4x M.2 -> pcie x4 adapters. Is there maybe something more... adequate? I was looking at Supermicro server risers but they're either 2x8 or something like 2x4+8 and those modes don't seem to be supported by ASRock X399 motherboards or pci-e 2.0 capable. I'm in need for more pci-e slots in virtualization server based on Threadripper and x4 speed seems to be enough for most quad gigabit network cards, gpus, SATA controllers and all other kinds of stuff I'd need. Also does anyone know how such risers behave in terms of IOMMU grouping? I'd like to connect lets say 2-3 GPUs and network card to it and then pass them various to headless KVM VMs so they should land in separate IOMMU groups. ASRock motherboards support SR-IOV so I can just grab single AMD S7150 for all Windows VMs but it unfortunately doesn't support Linux guests so I need also bunch of physical junk GPUs for Linux VMs. I know NVidia Tesla M60 supports Linux guests but NVidia charges insane 350$ per Linux VM annually for GRID drivers (what the fuck NVidia) so the only viable solution I see is to just stack dozen of cheap junk GPUs via riser and pass them through.

When anything is in the PCI-E slot of the motherboard the computer refuses to fully turn on, no matter whether or not it is a power hungry graphics card or just a wifi adapter. When something is in the PCI-E slot and you try to turn it on, it displays nothing to the screen however all fans and LED's turn on for about 7 seconds, then it turns off and tries again and cycles through this until it is turned off manually. Can I be sure that it is just a faulty motherboard? As it works completely fine with nothing in the PCI-E slot. *It is not an issue with the power supply as I have tested with another power supply that I know works perfectly fine and had the same problem. Thanks, Tom -
im currently running a ryzen 7 1700 with an rog strix rx580 from what ive been reading online the ryzen 7 has 16 free pci-e lanes (correct me if im wrong) so how would that work if i installed another rx580? would the bandwith be split 2X8?

How do I enable PCI-e slot in my laptop with windows 10.? I've been facing issues with graphics in my laptop lately and today from an application called HWiNFO I found out that my GPU #1 Nvidia Geforce 710m of whose PCI-E v2.0 is disabled.

So I bought the Asus Rampage VI Extreme and never thought that with a $700 board, I would run into a USB 2.0 issue. The board only has one USB 2.0 9pin header and I have 6 devices that need a internal header. I thought I had solved my problem by getting 2 ‘NZXT Internal USB Hub’ and dasie chaining then. I then bought the ‘ASUS ROG Front Base’ which needs to be plugged into the ROG EXT header AND the USB 2 header as one connector. I’ve attached a screenshot of the headers in question. Now I either have the Front Base plugged in or all my other USB devices. So I thought I’d get a USB 2 header PCIe expansion card but can’t for the life of me seem to be able to find one. This could be because it’s just such an old tech that it doesn’t exist any anymore. So my question is, does anyone know where I might find a PCIE USB 2.0 9pin header expansion card?

hi I'm new to this forum dude to one reason I'm having a confusion between the difference between the 3 gens for a example if I install a gtx 1080ti on a pcie 2.0x16 slot will it work or will it not or is jut a waste of money and if so what solution to fix it like the best pci-e 2.0 gpu of the pcie 2.0 in the market please help because I'm trying to get the best power out of my mac pro 2012 here a link https://support.apple.com/kb/SP652?locale=en_US and if so what is the gpu for this model thanks

When I get home, I'm going to try a test fit of a Dell OEM motherboard in my wife's mini ITX case. I know some dell motherboards have weird sizes, and other proprietary headers and all that jazz, but I'm ready to deal with that later. The problem with this motherboard is the first PCI-E slot is a 1x slot and the 2nd slot is a 16x slot. A graphics card won't fit because the case needs the card to be in the first slot. I want to remove the 1x slot and use a riser to have the graphics card positioned in the first slot. If I were to remove the 1x slot, would there be any reason the 16x slot would stop working? Would I ruin any runs/traces to other parts of the motherboard? I have a soldering Iron, heat gun and a solder vacuum.

Looking for an affordable PCI-E extender that will not impact the performance of high end GPUs (planning on useing with 1070 and 1080ti). I see most people recomending the TT Premium PCI-E 3.0 Extender by Thermaltake (http://ttpremium.com/product/tt-premium-pci-e-3-0-extender-300mm/) but it is a little expensive at 70$, especialy because i need two. Do you guys know any more affordable options?

MSI A320M PRO-VS/S - Need UEFI compatible Raid Card
HeartOfGermany posted a topic in Storage Devices
Hey guys. Somhow my MSI A320M PRO-VD/S does not allow a Raid 5. The HP Smart P400 does not work on that board - it does not post (x16 Card on X4 Raiser with open end - works on other cards perfectly). I tried the Pinmod (Pin 5+6) with no success. What about the Dell PERC 5i? Does it support this newer AM4 mainboard? I need a Raid 5 for 3 Drives, so if you can help, please do it. It is low budget, so I need a second hand card. Thanks in advance! -
hi,i'm new here and also new to pc building... first, i was wondering if it is possible to buy a pcie 6+2 pin or just 6 pin cable for fractal integra m 450w,if yes where please because i cant find it anywhere and it doesnt come with the psu,but the psu has a PCI-E plug,its the white one in the picture i bought a new graphics card that requires a 6 pin power connector so im in trouble.. i know,rookie mistake and all that.. i could return the gpu but i just wanna know is there a solution to the 6 pin cable problem before i do. also,if it is not possible to order the cable from fractal,can i use a pcie cable from another manufacturer? aaaand the last idea,can i use a 4pin molex to 6pin adapter? is it safe? if yes,can i connect the adapter to two 4 pin molex plugs that are on the same molex cable? the graphics card i bought is a palit gtx 1050 ti dual oc,on the manufacturer page it says it needs 85watts of power and pcie 3.0,i have a pcie 2.0 on my motherboard,but as i understand, pcie slots are backwards compatible the rest of my specs (if anyone finds it useful) are as follows : asus h81m-k mobo i3 4170 8gb ddr3 1600mhz 1TB HDD

I apologize if this has been answered before, but I was wondering if I could use one of those PCI-E 3.0 1x to 16x Powered Riser Adapter Card to extend my graphics card for a custom build; So I could lay it flat, or would it be better to do something else? I have an EVGA GeForce GTX 1070 FTW graphics card if that's necessary information.
