z170 vs z270

hey, just wondering what the diffrences are between the two.

from a quick look online i found most stuff that's changed is extra pci support and stuff thats nothing really useful unless you need it specificly(is that how you spell it?)

 

is there any significant diffrence?

Chipset gets 4 additional lanes that translate to a extra m.2 drive without worrying about not enough lanes. And you get Intel Optane technology.

Thanks, i'm not gonna be using the first m2 for the start so that's just useless to me, is the optane actually any good?

I'm gonna look right now, but if you have any comparisons with and without it i'll be very thankfull if you'll post them here
