confused about PCIe Lanes (do I have enough)

[radar]

[FONT=&quot]Hi,[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]I'm hoping I can get some advice. This will be my 4th PC build, although my last one was back in 2012 and I don’t understand enough about PCIe lanes. I am concerned I won’t have enough lanes for the system I am considering.

[FONT=&quot]I am building a new PC for video rendering, stock market charting software, MS Excel, YouTube video watching (I tend to have a dozen or more YouTube or other site's video tabs open), and web surfing. I suspect I only need an i7-7700K but am also looking at the i7-7800X as well as the Ryzen 7 1800X and Ryzen 5 1600X. Here is what I’m considering:[/FONT]

For future reference, SSD/HDD/ODD don't use PCI lanes.
The only SSD that uses PCI lanes are M.2 drives.
