I have only a PCIe 2.0 x4 and a PCIe 3.0 x16 free and I need to install a 10Gbps SFP+ card and a graphic card for transcoding with Jellyfin (the CPU is an old E5-2620 v2). Since I can’t find any SFP+ card that is x4, do you know a graphic card with decent transcoding capabilities (I’d day 2 4K simultaneously) that is only PCIe 2.0 x4?
Edit: the x4 slot is full length.
Pretty my Sfp+ card is x4. I’ll check.
Damn, I ordered mine yesterday! 🙈 Let me know. Thanks!
Ah! Been there. Allocating lanes on small systems always seems to have more trial and error than I expect.
And here’s that x4 SFP+ card: https://www.trendnet.com/products/10g-sfp-pcie-adapter/10-gigabit-pcie-sfp-network-adapter-TEG-10GECSFP-v2
Thanks a lot!
