Yes, sorry if i was vague.. That's exactly what i was wondering. The Ryzen 7 8700G diagrams explain alot, how the APU is linked by pcie4 x4 to the chipset, My APU doesn't have a chipset like the x670 for example at all. Thanks so much for the help BTW i really like this machine, paid around...

Yes. Both slots are pcie4x4. I was just wondering if any of those pcie lanes are routed to PCH instead of CPU. Typically i would want the main OS drive to be on CPU linked pcie lanes, but i'm not finding any info on how AMD APU's are done regarding this. I will do KDiskMark benchmarks...

Manual mentions nothing, this is one of those cheap chinese mini's, a GMKtec NucBox K8 Plus. I don't think by memory BIOS mentions anything. Below is lstopo output. Not sure yet if i want to benchmark in both slots, maybe i should.. But final OS will be on ZFS root, so to benchmark i would need...

Hello, quick question, based on the chart below yes, but i would like to confirm, it makes no difference which M.2 slot i install my main OS drive in? As in intel systems where some lanes are connected to CPU, and other, slower/shared lanes to the PCH. Thanks for any insight.

Hi, could you provide a link to that review please?

it's called a mini pc with oculink.

I think it's the average length of the founding father's feet.

obviously it's two foots long

yes but imagine a GPU powered by google's willow quantum CPU. It would have unlimited performance since it could render the image in multiple realities simultaneously. And you won't even need to install any game, you can just tell it's artificial general intelligence what you want to experience...

now that's a true geek hat. It's cool. If i was a young geek, i'd wear it, and laugh at everyone scorning me. In a few years they would all get one.

So my comment was a bit confusing.. to clarify: I found an old reddit thread, where apple ipod users are frantically trying to share tips on how to clean their ipod, because their ears hurt etc.. They believe the bacteria on their ipod's is the problem. It isn't. The problem is they are...

a 333GB or 666GB SLC drive with 2x or 3x the IOPS for $75 or $150 would be awesome for a separate OS drive.

They don't need to, they block the natural airflow. That causes inner-ear inflammation. Any object that goes deeper than your pinky finger into your ear canal is a risk, the skin in there is extremely sensitive. The vax is there only to protect the skin. Your hearing works with the coordination...

i'm older now, and i've had 2 ear infections the last years. Without penicillin treatement, the pressure from the infection inside your ear will continue to grow, until it finally crushes your eardrum. It's extremely uncomfortable, impossible to sleep, and when your eardrum is crushed, it's...

i wish they would focus on increasing IOPS instead of sequential read and write speeds, that very seldom are needed.
