threebills9909 Posted October 25, 2015 Share Posted October 25, 2015 the new samsung 950 pro m2 slot SSD is coming out this week and i want to use it as the boot drive.I want to get full functionality out of it and was told that i should get the ASROCK EXTREME 6 USB 3.1 mobo as it has an ultra m2 slot that uses the 3.0x4 thats needed,but i looked on the manual for the asrock extreme 6 mobo and it says if that m2 slot is used,the 2 PCI EXPRESS slots go from 3.0x16 and 3.0x8----down to 3.0x8 and 3.0x4.Now i have an ASUS strix 980 ti GPU i want to use,but i know its 3.0x16. So my question is,will my GPU work?or will the performance be decreased?...if so,is it a noticable deifference? Also,does anyone know what other mobo's can be used with the 950 pro to get full functionality?So far all i heard was that asrock is teh only company up to date with it.Like i sen asus hero has an m2 slot,but its only good for 10 gigs/second...where as the 950 pro uses like 32 gigs/second. please help!!! thank you for any recommendations in advance!
