- Nice! One suggestion - please add AM4 socket boards. With current memory prices, AM5 with DDR5 is becoming unattainable for some. DDR4 prices are rising as well. But not nearly as bad as DDR5.
- I’ve been struggling to find an AM5 board that can run three MI50s at 4x. This is perfect thank you.
Him are you sure about some of the PCI slots? I think some marked as 4x get downgraded to 1x on these boards…
Further edit - this maybe accurate - how are you getting this / confirming it?
- How can I contribute the data for the boards I own which are not on the site?
- For disclosure, this was created by "Ronin Wilde" - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cgdXj75VSMo
I found it useful and thought others might also like it.
- I wish all manufacturers clearly gave info like this up front. AM4 boards would be nice.
- Probably a good thing SLI fell out of fashion. No consumer boards with multiple 16x, but a few with 2 8x (gated behind a "mode" switch). A few years ago it was looking like we were on our way to full 4 16x slots. For cuda/llm/whatever does it really matter if the cards are in 1x slots?
- Can anyone recommend a specific, well-made, high-performance motherboard with loads of PCIe lanes and expansion slots, and sensible lane topology?
All the motherboards these days make me feel claustrophobic. My current workstation is pretty old, but feels like it had more expansion capability (relative to its time) than what's on the market today.

- Wow, this is great! I don't know how they generate this but it's really impressive. One of the things that I've been surprised with is some older dual socket workstations have tons of PCI-E lanes, but none are hooked to the second CPU it seems
- Very cool. Seeing how almost everything from WiFi, to NVME SSDs, (to apparently USB ports sometimes?) are connected to it, is PCIe the only high-speed interconnect we have for peripherals to communicate with modern CPUs?

- Whoa. This is so cool and helpful. Too bad my board is Intel. Is there a way to contribute to this?
- Very nice! Just a note (as the site says on bottom left side), this can vary depending on the CPU you use, would be nice to be able to select all different variations of supported CPUs as a future feature.
- That is so incredibly useful, hardware vendors do such a bad job of properly advertising how many GPUs will actually work and with what combination of m.2 slots in use.
- So cool xD i think you could take it to tool with premoum features for people who are learning :)
- Warning: addicting site :)
- Legendary!
