    If you buy the mobo with the most nvme slots. This still gives you one more.

    If you are already buying a motherboard with many NVMe slots, populating all of them and still need more space… and your motherboard supports PCIe bifurcation… I highly doubt you’re buying a 4060ti, just so you can get one more. It would be a lot easier to just one of the many available PCIe NVMe adaptors available and use that in one of your other PCIe slots.

    Otherwise you’re wasting pcie 5.0 slots. Current glue don’t need 16x pcie 4.0. Using 16x pcie 5.0 for a gpu is a waste on any motherboard

    While that may be true, GPU manufacturers aren’t going to make an 8x version of a high end GPU just so you can fit on an additional NVMe SSD. The only reason Asus did it with the 4060ti is because it’s already an 8x GPU.

    This is a weird niche we’re unlikely to see more of.
