Actually the 24 PCI-E lanes does not have anything to do with Intel Rapid Storage Technology , it's just more lanes for the PCI-E slots.http://www.pcworld.com/article/3152...one-big-change-makes-up-for-smaller-ones.html
"From what I can tell, there are three key changes to Z270. The first is an upgrade from the 20 lanes of PCIe Gen 3 in the Z170 to 24 lanes in the new performance Z270 chipset. The move will let motherboard makers integrate high-bandwidth connections such as M.2 or U.2 without having to share bandwidth between devices. Intel says it has also improved overclocking capability.
TechPowerUp reported that Intel’s 200-series chipsets – which would be used on motherboards with the LGA 1151 socket – would feature incremental improvements over their current generation equivalents including the upgrade to Intel Rapid Storage Technology (RST) version 15, support for Intel Optane Technology, and additional downstream PCI-E 3.0 lanes. The Z270 and H270 chipsets each have four extra lanes compared to their 100-series predecessors. These “downstream lanes” allow for additional high bandwidth connections that hang off the chipset (which does appear to still be ultimately limited by the physical four PCI-E 3.0 lanes that make up the DMI 3.0 link between the CPU and PCH). Examples include extra Thunderbolt, USB 3.1, and PCI-E slots for NICs, capture cards, storage controllers, or even graphics cards. https://www.pcper.com/news/Motherbo...hipsets-Support-Kaby-Lake-More-PCI-E-30-Lanes
Kenrou was talking about PCI Express storage.
Its a 'dud' as well. At 5Ghz I can do 1.35V, which is less than the 7700K, however, It hits a wall sooner it seems. I didn't have too much time with it, so I just ran into another 7700K... which is a lot better than the ES.. I will post up some 'stable' SS' here in a bit.ED, how's that 7350k overclocking project going? Haven't heard any more from you on that.
