The PC ports on my system aren’t performing well when trying to connect to my 75-inch 4K 60Hz HDR10+ monitor. I considered a liquid cooler but went with an air cooler just because it was cheaper. A high-speed RAM upgrade seems more important to me. I picked the X870 board mainly for its built-in Wi-Fi 7 capability. It’s tough to install a vertical GPU mount and can’t run a full PCIe adapter or add in half-height cards. This specific board also blocks PCIe slot 2 if you use a M.2 slot, which might be an issue down the line. With the wired setup, relocating the modem isn’t easy, and I don’t want to risk tripping over my mom’s wheelchair or getting in my wheelchair wheels. I’ll need to use cable clips along the base boards and around door frames. I’m planning a 75-foot run from the modem to an 8-port network switch in my room—it should cover everything: my main gaming PC tower, a backup gaming laptop for chatting, PS5 Disk Fat, Xbox One S, Smart TV/Monitor, and my Onkyo TX-NR6100 receiver.

are you interpreting the instructions correctly? can i use dual m.2 drives with a intel core i9-10900kf at 3.7 Ghz and a 10-core processor? your boot ssd is an msi spatium m450 500gb m.2-2280 pcie 4.0 x4 nvme solid state drive placed in the m.2 socket (m2_1). could i install another ssd into the m.2 socket (m2_2) then? or would i really need the i9 and just rely on a core i5-10400f at 2.9 Ghz and stock cooler? the manual mentions storage details: • six sata3 connectors at 6.0 gb/s, compatible with intel rapid storage technology 18, ncq, ahci and hot plug* • if m2_2 is taken by a sata device, sata3_1 will be disabled. • two sata3 connectors by asmedia asm1061, supporting ncq, ahci and hot plug • one hyper 1 supports m key type 2242/2260/2280 m.2 pcie module up to gen4x4 (64 gb/s) (m2_1 works only with 11th gen intel core processors)** • one ultra m.2 socket supports m key type 2280 and m.2 sata3 6.0 gb/s module plus an m.2 pcie module up to gen3 x4 (32 gb/s)** it supports nvme ssd as boot disks, supports asrock u.2 ki

The 10th generation slot is turned off. The 11700k costs about $200 on eBay and gives you 2 cores. Consider upgrading your BIOS before proceeding if you choose this path.
