rbuass Posted February 8, 2011 Share Posted February 8, 2011 I went to the XS party in Vega,s when I saw on the Fugger's table a PCIex 16, and went after one. It's great because you do not need to be concerned about VGA condensation on the motherboard and makes the benchmark more fun. I took today that I had sold my 990x and bought a 980X, to use about 15 liters of nitrogen that was left, I opted for XP and 3DMark06, so I could test the CPU and video card with the Extender at the same time. The result was fine for only one benchmark Waiting for a new charge of LN2 to test another benchs. Best regards for all :up: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TaPaKaH Posted February 8, 2011 Share Posted February 8, 2011 I think people tested this with PCIe riser ages ago, the reason why this never caught on is the extra latency caused by slot extention. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
