11 months agoReminder, the 3090 FE used two 8-pins and was a 350W card. If they were going to use 8-pins on the 4090, they could have just used 3 at 450W.
It wouldn’t hit 600W as the current 4090 does but it would still have more headroom than the 3090 did.
Slot M2_4 supports 4x4 NVMe with 11th Gen CPU.
Otherwise you will be limited to Gen3 speeds, which means you should just buy a cheaper SSD.
