Hey there -

Having some very squirrelly behavior with my new 16 core.

First - the good news. NAND m.2s are working on cheap amazon passive cards with good speed!

Bad news - 128 GB OWC RAM works, but not alongside the 32GB Apple RAM. Gives a silly orange blinking light. Does this sound right?

More bad news - cannot seem to get the Radeon VII (in slot 3) driving my 4 displays. It certainly sees it and I was able to get one display intermittently working via HDMI but no dice on the display ports. I had it internal with the Belkin kit....but also tried the Radeon VII in it's external eGPU case via thunderbolt (which works with my Mac mini) and no dice. I've got a thunderbolt 3 - 2 display port adapter coming Sunday...so I may just stick with the stock card for now if it works, but any advice would be appreciated!

Thanks much for any advice,

Cody
