The article said it's for small form factor PCs - were the motherboards you were looking at designed for microatx or something similar?


My build is Mini ITX


It sounds like this splits the pcie lanes it provides into two, effectively halving bandwidth. Wouldn't this impact the performance of the GPU?


No, for 4060 and 4060 TI the GPU is linked to only 8 of the 16 PCIe lanes, the other 8 are not used. Asus is using 4 of these unused lanes.


This looks to be using PCIe 5, which is 2x the bandwidth of PCIe 4. Considering a RTX 4090 is still using PCIe 4x16, so effectively the same bandwidth as PCIe 5x8, it should be fine.


This solution allows the SSD to use PCIe gen5 speed, but does not include a full PCIe switch so PCIe gen4 x16 from the GPU cannot be repackaged into PCIe gen5 x8 for the trip up to the CPU. Which is why this is being introduced on a GPU that only does PCIe gen4 x8.


You're right. I didn't see that spec for the 4060.


> Wouldn't this impact the performance of the GPU?

It isn't a super high performance GPU to begin with, so the narrower bus is unlikely to make much of a difference.


(author here) Sorry the description was truncated, so I'll leave a comment:

Hello! I wanted to share a project I've been working on off and on for a couple of years: a simple tool to help make directories of shell scripts more easily accessible.

It's reached a point of stability that I'm interesting in feedback and thoughts. Thanks for reading!


This has been posted a couple times, but GCP has an equivalent that's been around for a while:

vanilla zeromq is a pretty bad choice for any database. zmq explicitly makes no guarantees about reliable delivery, so losing random inserts or queries here or there would be considered acceptable.

subscribers also lose the first few messages the publisher sends, unless you make sure you start the subscriber first. The publisher will make no indication of which messages are lost and which ones have actually been sent to someone:

I would suggest building something on top of request-reply instead: it's actually possible to get build reliable delivery on that.

I definitely see the merit that StackOverflow provides. It's a great place to find a quick answer or get help on something you've never touched before.

I'm just glad it's not my only tool anymore. And sometimes using the harder tools have unexpected benefits.
