I keep seeing people recommend the 5930k over the 5820k due to it having more PCI lanes. But just having a Google, the 4790k only has 16.

How does everyone cope with the 4790k with only 16? - Surely everyone copes fine?!

How many lanes does my i7-950 have?

Basically, I want to know how many is minimal, what's the average people use, what's overkill? I know GPUs are 16 lanes each, but that's all I know
