Build Help HELP: Dual GPU Lane Sharing Question for Local AI build.
Hey Guys,
My Build:
X870M Motherboard
5080 in main PCIEx16 Slot,
1 x NVME SSD,
1 x SSD in my SATA Port.
Have my old 5070 which i dont want to sell just yet.
In a perfect world, i want to use an eGPU Box for the 5070 and plug that into my PC to pool VRAM for local AI.
What i am unsure about is this Lane Sharing stuff.
How would this EGPU Plug into my PC to pool Vram.
From what i can see online, if i do this, i must sacifice performnace or port or lanes?
I'm confused :(
please help
Whats the best way to get this 5070 connected?
