no clue I think x16 vs x8 doesn't matter much but what messed up my performance/scores was the fact was the first card was running at x8 and the 2nd one was running at x16 so they were not in sync or something you can say

on the X-99 is there not a switch should put it in the correct alligment also it tells you what slot's to put it in? On my X99-S it shows me what lanes and also what I am doing.
Yours should be 16/16x I think the issue is you have the NVMe drive as well and the sound blaster Zx its forcing
you have 16x / 16x / 4x / 4x max 40 lanes. you might need to force the issue to get the correct configuration.Spartan@HIDevolution and killkenny1 like this. -

my X99-s takes the PCIe lanes from slot 5 to use for the M.2 slot. Its Shared according to the book

I see, so removing this Sound Blaster Zx was the best choice for my situation. I hope the Skyflake motherboards will have better support for this so I can have that Sound Blaster Zx along with 2 GPUs and that Intel 750 PCIe SSD and still run @ x16 on all slots

You're gonna have to wait for Skylake-E then.

I'm too late then I guess. Sounded awesome anyway.
Just saw your review link on a post on the P870 page forum...TomJGX and Spartan@HIDevolution like this. -

You run some desktop hardware similar to mine and test stuff all the time, thought to ask, since there is no passmark thread anywhere, if this was a good passmark score
I don't know what to expect from passmark score wise.
This is 6950X not running anything special, old 980Ti and some cheap RAM I got years ago for a bargin, the base g.skill 8gb sticks etc..
How good is passmark to use versus say 3DMark in your opinion, I'm asking this because some laptop companies show thier stock passmark scores but I have no idea what they mean, in relative performance.
When I go and test my own hardware its not really within the ballpark scores of what passmark rates my hardware either, and Im not exactly OCing things here or trying to break any records, this is the 24/7 PC of mine thats maybe shuts off once a season at most, with passive cooling, not exactly my performance build, but it's at relative useful clocks on things, like actually stock (like who uses 3Ghz on a 6950X I mean, right ?)
Since I know you had a PC with X99 chipset, I was wondering if you also had a passmark score or such for comparison and a 3DMark score as well. (which I can see you do.)
Just want to figure out what these numbers mean, are they individual tests similar to some tests you can find in other applications, like "P95" or a simple "winsat mem" and add these things up in thier own variations, if you know, just thought no harm in asking (you being a long time lurker on these forums etc..) -

Sorry for resurrecting this old thread.
I hope that didn;t bother you, I was just using the forum search and couldn't really find anything for passmark relative to what I was using.Spartan@HIDevolution likes this. -
