So here's my dilemma. I'm currently rocking a custom water loop that is way overkill for what I'm currently doing. It's sitting in a corsair 900d, so it's massive. I moved into my fiances and there simply isn't room for this system so I was looking at getting a new case and using an aio cooler for just the cpu. I figured while I was at it I'd like to retire some of my older hard drives and step up to some m2 nvme drives while lightening the system that much more.
With that in mind I was looking at getting a Maximus XI Extreme because it can support 4 m2 drives, but the more research I do the more conflicting info I find.
Here's what I wanted to do:
maximus xi extreme
8700k
1 970 pro 512Gb for system and programs
1 970 evo 1tb for my steam library
2 mushkin pilot 2tb drives for storage in the dimm 2 card
2 evga 1080ti FTW3 in sli
If what I'm reading is right I'd have to scrap one of the video cards?
Been scouring the web for a couple hours and can't find anything definitive. Any help is appreciated.
