The GPU uses memory from the M.2 storage device.
The GPU uses memory from the M.2 storage device.
Considering an upgrade to storage while using your second M.2 slot would place it behind the GPU. Would the GPU impact cooling performance? Your system uses a PRIME B650M-A AX6 II board with a 5080 graphics card, and you’re referencing a specific build at buildredux.com.
It seems his SSD is already in that slot, but he’s saying the secondary one is under the GPU. That’s a mix-up. Either way, it shouldn’t cause issues.
It seems the design might have allocated the second PCIe slot specifically for the GPU, though the guide doesn’t discuss how multiple PCIe lanes are shared among components.
