    ips 24" 1080p - how to avoid the "pixelated" models?

    ok, hi, im searching for a budget 24" 1080p ips monitor as far as i know most ips models from dell//hp/lg/asus/acer/aoc/viewsonic are virtually the same products with a different logo and i know that the latest ips panels have this blue/orange pixelation (mostly vertical) issue and since all...

    friend, take a break and see what the questions are and what your answers are im asking questions about the specifications and your answer is to keep repeating the specifications so let me be clear, i do have read the specifications of both the motherboards i have mentioned, because that is...

    AMD x570 chipset pci-e lanes

    thank you for the replies i really dont see your point, i wrote the same thing in my first post, here: also i know there are exceptions like the other motherboard you mentioned - like you said, the total bandwidth of the chipset lanes is 4.0 x4 pci-e lanes if you add the maximum bandwidth of...

    AMD x570 chipset pci-e lanes

    (this is about question 2) jandor, once again: - CHIPSET: 1 x PCI Express 4.0 x 16 slots (max. at x8 mode) thats a chipset pci-e 4.0 x16 (x8) not a cpu pci-e 4.0 x16 (x16 - dual x8) so how is that possible? the chipset's total bandwidth should be 4.0 x4

    I can’t wait for b550

    i dont think the M.2 part is happening, did AMD said something like that is it just what you want? im asking because i want the same things although i would prefer the M.2 slots to also be cpu fed (but still onboard without a pci-e card) which i dont think is possible with gen 3.0

    Asus z370i Strix ITX PCIE Lane Use?

    hope this isnt considered a necro as far as i know the on board M.2 slots on Intel are connected to the chipset so they shouldnt share pci-e lanes with the gpu unless you are not using the first pci-e slot for the gpu and no, each M.2 might be connected to a x4 which makes you think they are x8...

    AMD x570 chipset pci-e lanes

    hi all, two quick questions 1) many x570 motherboards (for example MSI MPG x570 Gaming Edge Wifi) list the chipset M.2 slot as 3.0 x4 now i know that the x570 chipset should have a total of 4.0 x4 so i suppose that the chipset M.2 slot has 4.0 x2 and they just write it as 3.0 x4? what makes me...

    Why 4 16x slots on new X299 and X399 boards?

    no, that's only for gaming, for other uses you can use as many GPUs as are supported by your motherboard/cpu

    Common knowledge for buying a MB in 2017?

    z170 m/bs don't support intel 7xxx cpus out of the box, u might need to boot with a different cpu in order to update i think z270 offers more pci-e (pch/dmi) lanes afaik you ll find cheaper m/bs with two M.2 slots in z270 on a side note intel 7xxxs support 2400Mhz RAM without o/c which can...

    Raid0 on NVMe - M.2

    i actually wanted to ask you about TRIM support for RAID 1 / mirror again because i found this article about Intel RST drivers here is a quote (two paragraphs above 'The Requirements' header) from the ARTICLE: "Intel eventually added TRIM support in its RAID drivers for RAID-1 (mirrored)...

    Raid0 on NVMe - M.2

    i don't see how you wouldn't see an improvement with a faster drive for any modern editor startup/database/file/plugin loading involves reading many+large files and it still takes load of time with any disk that's why people refer to some editors as hosts, suites, workstations etc, because they...

    Raid0 on NVMe - M.2

    yeah i know about Windows support, my question was indeed about those new (to me at least) motherboard M.2 RAID configurations RAID 1 is indeed what im personally interested in (given that the OP's questions about R0 have been answered) so i take it there is no TRIM? that's a problem, no? the...

    Raid0 on NVMe - M.2

    ^AMD's new Ryzen platform would be offering an M.2 slot fed directly via CPU if im not mistaken i don't know what happens when u setup a RAID between this M.2 slot and the other one which would be fed via the PCH/DMI though -------- but i wanted to ask a question talking about RAID 0/1...
