Hello Experts,
I have this:
ASUS P8P67 EVO
2 x PCIe 2.0 x16 (x16 or dual x8) *1
1 x PCIe 2.0 x16 (x4 mode, black) *1
2 x PCIe 2.0 x1
2 x PCI
*1: The PCIe x16_3 slot shares bandwith with the PCIe x1_1 slot, PCIe x1_2 slot, ESATA3G & PESATA3G and USB3_34. The PCIe x16_3 runs at x1 mode by default for system resource optimization. (PCIe x1_2 will be disabled.)
Using Win7 64-bit
I would like to get this for my OS drive:
Samsung XP941 256GB AHCI PCIe 2.0 x4 M.2 SSD
And connect it to my motherboard using this:
Addonics ADM2PX4 PCIe 3.0 to M.2 SSD Adapter
Like to know these things:
1)Can my motherboard boot from PCIe?
2)Does it matter that the Addonics SSD adapter is PCIe 3.0 and my mobo's PCIe are 2.0?
3)Will my GPU or the Samsung M.2 SSD get throttled due to the motherboard's weird PCIe allocations?
