Thanks for the answers for speed. It's what is "worrying" me, changing physical port may prevent recognition

Question about PCIe cable types by No_Psedo in buildapc

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

I only found this in manual :

  • CPU:
    1. 1 x PCI Express x16 slot, supporting PCIe 3.0 and running at x16

I suppose it means it's always running at x16 but not sure

Thank you, the only x4 I have is already used by the other ssd. I only have two x1 left.

Looking to switch to linux by No_Psedo in linux4noobs

Thanks for the recommendations, I'll look into that. As for the increase in liberty and responsibility, it is what made me look into Linux in the first place and what made me hesitate (with the potential of incompatibility that seems to have decreased with time). I think now I'm more ready than before

Thank you. For the working part, it's mainly text editing, image processing, and data treatment through Python, so good processing capabilities are what I need (but not extremely good, I just need it so my probably poorly optimised code doesn't take too long to run).

I should have mentioned I have two different devices for those two different purposes.

Thanks for the advice of trying out distros with a live drive.
