So i was watching numerous of explanatory videos and read bunch of threads about this, but i'm still confused.
So what confuses me the most:
What is connected through motherboard with these lanes? GPU, and what else? Sata (HDD/SSD), something else? Everything?
What does the number of PCIE lanes that CPU use mean(28/40)? Aren't PCIE lanes there to connect stuff to the CPU?
Is x1 basic measurement of PCIE lane width, and then x2,x4,x8,x16 are just multiplication of that x1?
Why do some peole worry about how many lanes GPU and CPU use so they have enough, are GPU and CPU using same lanes?
Thanks if someone can answer me these question.
