Noob question about x4 and x8 slots

[viper357]

Hi all

Would it make any difference if I put a 1070 gpu on a x8 or x4 slot? Would the x8 slot give better performance for mining or doesn't it matter?

Thank You.

No it wouldn't make a difference.
4 PCIE 3.0 lanes are plenty of bandwidth for a GTX 1070 and there wouldn't be any differences in hashrate compared to x16.
