If you enjoy your PCIe x16 being cucked to x8 with certain NVMe configs for the next 8~10 years, that's your prerogative.
It's only a sub 5% performance difference now, but the gap will only widen as newer Gen 5 video cards come out.
You're probably the same shithead who's crying about B580 driver overhead.

Yours is /AMD pcbg/. You left GeForce workstation cards because you can't bullshit around that segment.

>Battlemage had an overall good launch. Lately, it’s been getting coverage for a potential for driver overhead in some test configurations that cause disproportionately bad performance on older CPUs.
>In addition to our 9800X3D test platform, we also ran several cards back through on a 5600X (watch our review) with locked clocks and an i5-12400 (watch our review).
>The short answer to the question of whether it changes performance is “no.”
>The long answer is that we have extra charts to show why not.
>There are scenarios where it can matter, but other than a couple instances, they do not really emerge in our test suite.
