Title: Re: M.2 to PCIE adapters that really work ? Post by: MikeHenderson on July 30, 2017, 12:52:06 PM I've ran into several issues, but I'm not sure any will help you.
1. m.2 share lanes with sata connectors on some (all?) boards so if you are running a hard drive it can interfere. 2. Running a dual PSU to them is finicky, better to run gpu, riser, m.2, and mobo off same psu. 3. You can split the m.2 4xpci for AMD but not Nvidia. I've ran 6 AMD cards off 2 m.2.

8 cards are working fine, 2 of them works on adapters. I had not issue with adapter. Title: Re: M.2 to PCIE adapters that really work ?

I've ran 6 AMD cards off 2 m.2. 1.I am not sure about that. m.2 is using x4 pci-e lanes from "south bridge". example: South Bridge: Intel Sunrise Point Z170 PCI-E 2.0 x4 port #9 In Use @ x4 (Samsung NVMe SSD Controller) Title: Re: M.2 to PCIE adapters that really work ?

Yea, did this. Thanks for all replies, I'll try find v2 then somewhere, fortunately these aren't that expensive. Would appreciate if anyone could post a link to the m.2 to pcie adapter that they have got working. |
