I have the asrock board in my sig with the A10-7850k 12core R7 cpu/gpu. For the money and the space I have, using the wifi/bt slot for my evo msata boot drive, and leaving the 6 sata slots for data seems to me to be the best cost/efficiency ratio atm. I want to use the PCI-Express 3.0 slot for something but am not sure what. If I get a dedicated PCI-Express 3.0 video card, would that free up the cpu from doing gpu stuff, or would I be doing an 'sli' type video setup? I wouldn't mind having a PCI-Express 3.0 hard drive but they are over $700 and I don't think that would be cost effective at all considering this board does not support ddr4 or m.2 slots. Definitely don't need a sound card and I'm no gamer either.
Any suggestions or tips? Thank you in advance.
