I'm looking to purchase the Asus Strix Z270F and a GTX 1080Ti with an in-system Elgato HD60 Pro capture card for streaming and the 7700K i7 processor.

I'm mostly concerned with PCIe lane congestion. I may be confused, but the 7700K supports up to 16 lanes, and the 1080Ti uses 16 lanes. Would I be able to use my capture card since it would take the lane use up to 17 or am I missing something?

If I am missing something, please let me know what! Thanks in advance for your replies!
