July 24, 20196 yr hello, actually i have the following: - Fractal Node 804 - BeQuiet Pure Power 10 - 400w - Intel i7-7700 (non-K) - Noctua cooler - 64GB RAM (NON-ECC) - ASUS Q270M-C - Samsung 970 evo nvme 1tb - 4 x WD Red 10 TB - Dual Intel NIC i have the problem, i wanted to install a 8-port hba sata controller and a quad-port-nic instead of the dual-nic and i saw, the board has only 1 x pcie 16x slot and so i cant do what i wanna do. so now i am struggling if i should buy a new board, found some rly good - there is only 1 bad thing about this board. https://www.supermicro.com/en/products/motherboard/X11SSH-LN4F i could use my cpu, my ram, install the max number of sata hdds i can install in the case - but the pcie nvme slot is only pcie x2 not x4 as my ssd is. now i think about just buy this and maybe i buy a pcie-addon-card to install the ssd on (idk if this works) or should i go for more cores / threads if i switch to a new mobo? thanks for hel
