JGINYUE has begun selling a $58 PCIe card that uses AMD’s B650 chipset to add four M.2 slots, USB and network connectivity without relying on motherboard PCIe bifurcation support. The archived 5 October report says the card connects over PCIe 4.0 x4 and includes a 10Gbps USB-C port.
Why it mattersJGINYUE recommends connecting its optional six-pin power plug, especially with all four M.2 positions occupied. Availability outside China is not confirmed, so this is an intriguing expansion option rather than a shopping tip for everyone.
Discuss: Would you trust a chipset repurposed this way for a storage-heavy PC, or stick with expansion built into the motherboard?
