My motherboard, and PCI Lanes and storage
5 minutes ago, Aragorn- said:your total bandwidth between the chipset and CPU is limited to a PCIe3x4 link
PCIe3x4 can do a smidge under 4GB/sec.
the reality is its unlikely your going to see any meaningful performance degredation unless you have extremely fast SSD's connected to both M2B and PCIEX4 and are simultaneously hitting them at max speed. Somewhat unrealistic for most normal use.
For your bonus Q, the CPU's official support is 3200. Speeds higher than this are essentially regarded as overclocking.
Thanks so much.
And yeah, I'm definitely not worrying about absolutely min-maxing SSD performance or anything. As long as adding a component doesn't suddenly drop my main drive speed by half or something stupid.
