Posted September 25, 2017 I'm wondering if anyone knows of any lga 1150 Intel mobos available for sale, and where I could find them, with 7 pcie slots and at least 1 m.2 port ? I've noticed a lot of the msi and gigabyte z97 gaming versions of these mobos fall into this category, but I can't find any new, or even decent used, ones for sale at all and I'm not sure why. Any input is appreciated. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted September 26, 2017 Z97's M.2 slot is slow.. nvme drives won't run anywhere near their rated speed. Most mainstream platform boards don't have 7 pcie slots because of available pcie lanes, even my Z97 Classified with PLX chip for 4-way SLI/Crossfire only has 6. The only one I know of is the ASUS WS board and not all of those are full x16 size slots. . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The problem is moving to ddr4 ram is so much more expensive, and I have no need to upgrade anything but my motherboard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
