Hi,
Bit of a strange 1st post, So 'Hi everyone'
...
Theres probably a really straight forward answer to this, that i simply haven't found yet with google, but if i give a rough out line of my current system with a screen shot could anyone expalain how this is possible? (Gen 5 speeds in Gen 4 slot)
14900KF on a bed of ROG STRIX Z790-I GAMING with an RTX4070 Founders Card and a crucial t700 2tb gen5 ssd (slotted into the gen4 slot on the board) allowing, as can be seen, full x16 gen4 bandwidth to the GPU.
" Screen grab / Hwinfo / Crystal / GPUZ "
The spec of the board and 'most' gen5 z790 compatible boards i think, states to achive full gen5 bandwidth the ssd must be in a gen5 slot and will then reduce pcie to x8 for the gpu? i thought it was a possibly a bug in crystaldisk but other speed test tool yeild the same 12000 to 12500 speeds while gpu is running x16-4.
Any info on this would be greatfully appreciated or is this totally normal?
Thanks Nige
