Hi there.

Will there be any notable performance impacts that a x8 PCIe 4.0 GPU connection can cause over a x16 PCIe 4.0 connection?
Or asked differently: Can vMix take advantage of a x16 PCIe 4.0 over a x8 configuration.

CPU: Ryzen 9 5950X
GPU: 5070TI

I'm just thinking about getting a Decklink 8k Pro Gen2 and if it's worth sacrifing x16 PCIE GPU connection for it.
My workflow relies on NDI at most...so this 12G SDI are just nice to have for me. At least for recording 4 x 12G SDI Inputs with MultiCorder though.

Thanks for any advice.

Have a happy easter🐣

Thanks Kayo,

but these are about typical GPU loads (gaming)
But I'm afraid that it would be different when doing a lot of MultiCorder (4k) or recording as there are many bus transfers happening. Isn't it?
