Everybody: This end of the year should be awesome.
Intel , AMD, NVIDIA all are gearing up to release all new silicons.
Me: oh great. Hoping rtx4090 to perform great so that the price of 3080ti price would go down and i finally will be able to buy a 2nd hand 2080ti/6700xt with my budget.

Same as Alder Lake.

I just don't need a CPU upgrade, but I very much like the "Netflix" of hardware, if you know what i mean.
So let the fight begin. 😀

so possibly Z790 will be even worse than z690 ? did they learn nothing from z690 ?
having more 4.0 lanes seems pretty bad to me because...
every day I read comments of people that don't get how lanes and bandwith work including supposedly pros like Linus from LTT
switching more lanes to 4.0 is a HUGE mistake it means more bandwith will be unusable, just like 5.0 is total garbage Z690 is a one pcie slot motherboard and you cannot use the main m.2 slot unless you want to throttle your gpu with x8 4.0 or 3.0
every day..every one of them I read comments like
"if you use the m.2_1 you get pcie gen5 x4 on m.2 and pcie gen5 x8 on pcie slot 1" WRONG
"if you connect two pcie cards you get x8 and x8 pcie gen5" WRONG
I don't blame people as it's manufacturers that purposefully keep writing "pcie gen5 x" in their descriptions when they know full well it's a lie, I got royally screwed over switching from X570 to Z690 as I actually use my pcie slots ><
the truth is that you get x4 x8 of the pcie gen your hardware is..all the remaining bandwith is LOST
meaning it's much smarter and useful to have more older gens lanes than fewer 5.0 or 4.0 lanes, that way it can be spread on multiple nvme slots, satas, a 10gb nic etc....
4.0 is okayish but I'm pretty sure most don't have only 4.0 nvme, only half mine are
hopefully more people have 4.0 gpus nowadays otherwise they'll get x8 3.0 roughly 6.5Gb/s >< on their videocard if they make the mistake of using the main M.2
my cough according to manufacturers cough main pcie slot is supposed to be "pcie gen5 x16" +- 52Gb/s if I connect only a gpu no m.2 on a 1080ti I get x16 3.0 13Gb/s and so I would lose the equivalent of 48x 3.0 or 24x 4.0...awesome 😏(I have a 4.0 gpu but still you get the idea)
if you connect an m.2 you halve that and so lose even more it's insane that no one addresses that
