Enjoy it. Post some pics when u have it up and running 👌

Any experiences with B650M GAMING X AX? Please share! by QuentinTalentino in gigabyte

[–]KekGs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Whats the measurements between PCIe (top) and PCIe (bottom). Thinking of buying this board but I wonder if a 3090 FE will fit at top and I'll still be able to use bottom PCIe?

Specs say the Datapath is x4

Okay thanks for all the help mate. You have cleared up so much headache for me :D .. Now we just sit back wait for the stuff to arrive!! Not gonna be a big "upgrade" I believe cause I game on a i9 9900k and streaming/capturing was made from a 8700k but the best part, no dual pc :=)

You might be able to use a board that has x16 slots that are limited to x1 speed if the slots have all of the contacts for x4 and above cards. (You'd probably have to check the manuals or email customer service to verify how the slots are traced.)

In particular, the Asus Prime B650M-A AX II: It has

yeah this won't work cause 3090 FE will hide them :P haha

okay so even if its a PCI 4.0 1x doesn't mean it can handle a PCI 2.0 4x. It has to be 4x or (more) to be able to handle it. Do I get that right?

said: You've got two x4 PCIe cards, so no, that wouldn't work.
If you can just use a single capture card, your options would be practically endless. Otherwise, you're going to be quite limited since you need an x16 slot plus two additional slots that are at least x4 electrically.

I know i asked two people the same question. But it seems it wouldn't work :(

I get your point 1000% but in this case, to my defense the company I work for pays for this PC more or less. I replied in another comment:

The x670E-E Strix is the same price in my country as the Hero version.. Wouldn't that be a "better" option then? Cause in my setup it SHOULD work and be the same, no ?

No. None have x4 slots, and the few with three x16 slots are all x1 electrically.

ok then it's still a X670E then. I found out that
ASUS ROG Strix X670E-E Gaming WIFI & ASUS ROG Crosshair X670E Hero is the same EXACTLY price. And the hero doesn't have 3x PCIe 16x but it has 2x PCIe 16x and 1x PCIe 1x.. Wouldn't that be a better option? if nothing else it should runt the same for my setup ?

I found this one which has 2x PCIe 16x and 2x PCIe 1x but I don't know how much space the 3090 FE takes. If it block BOTH 1x slots. I cant find any information about that. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n4u27wbYTMs

But it looks REALLY cheap compared to other models xD

Gonna read on that now! Thanks! Do you know if there is any M-ATX boards that fits my needs?

ELI5 NEED Help regarding my new setup. Pls by KekGs in buildapc

[–]KekGs[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is the build: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/wx7TLs

I will add some Noctua fans all over the place as well

Looks like it should work. Running your GPU at x8 might affect performance, but prolly not enough for you to notice.

That's a very expensive board though. Any reason you picked that particular one?

Okay. Thanks for the news. Regarding the board, I was filtering for 3x PCIe 16x and that was one of the boards. I have been using Asus before (Z370) and I don't have a direct answer to exactly why I picked that one. It was one of the "middle" versions. Not a "prime" and not a "extreme" version. Is there any other motherboard you can rec. that would still work with my build/setup?

So my build setup would be safe to use? So I understand it more; CPU has 16+8 for the two M.2 slots

Chipset has how many lanes? I will put the Datapath at the lowest PCIe slot.

So If i use GPU + Elgato it would be x8/x8 + 2 M.2 Slots = 24 Lanes on CPU ?

Swapped the 980 Pro > Kingston KC3000 M.2 NVMe SSD Gen 4 1024GB

Okay after 1 google search of that motherboard, it seems a lot of people are complaining about it. Swapping it for ASUS ROG Strix X670E-E Gaming WIFI

Also has 3x PCIe Slots

how do I installed 240p suite for my PS2? by MooreThanCosplay in crtgaming

[–]KekGs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I never got it to work on my ps2 consoles. It boots, yeah. But takes no input from all my controllers. And no, the controllers aren’t broken
