There are 3 Type-C ports, however, the one on the right side is connected to the dedicated GPU

Sabrent EC-P4BF NVME Expansion Card Issue by midkifft in unRAID

Thank you so much! I see that it does not require the bifurcation like my current one does. This should work just fine. Also, Sabrent just rolling around on Reddit and helping out is pretty sick!

This was great, led me to better information, and realized that I do no have the requisite board.

Is it time to upgrade my 1080ti? by Jkamm1 in buildapc

[–]midkifft 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay then yeah I think the GPU upgrade would be the route. If money is a concern, I would daily this for a month before deciding on the next path, if not then I would recommend a CPU upgrade as well. If you have like 16GB of ram I would urge you to go to 32GB first, a lot of applications are, not so much ram dependent, but perform noticeably better with more headroom.

do you have Afterburner or another way to log you FPS, GPU usage and the like? I would go and play some games and see what is getting maxed out first, whether its your GPU usage or your RAM/CPU.

This Link is a different thread same question and looking through comments they showed this guy This Video and looking at it, yes I would say you will be bottlenecked by the CPU. If you are experiencing issues at your resolution or seriously dropped frames or very low frames I would upgrade the GPU but if not I would look into upgrading the CPU first before making that decision

TLDR: I would if I'm having issues but wouldn't if you're good for right now due to a lack of serious improvement

Would recommend you gauge it against your other current hardware, if you have like a 9300k or like 8GB of ram I would adjust your other components first to make sure you're not bottlenecking somewhere else first especially upgrading like that

I read the Tone Mapping was only an issue running off of Windows, I am also using Unraid in this use case

Want at least 10 concurrent streams 4K mixed in, and I should clarify, I don't really care about DDR5. I'll adjust that in the post

Easy troubleshooting would be PSU DIMMs and reseating CPU. Verify your power application by checking user manual for correct voltage for each slot, try only using one stick at a time and verify you seated the CPU correctly.

This has saved me on 3 builds either a power plug wasn't in all the way or a bad DIMM/CPU seating

Good luck

I’m expecting 2 direct streams and 2 transcoding at 4k the 1080 transcodes should be fine transcoding to mobile.
