3. Expansion slots
This motherboard supports one PCIe 4.0 x16 (supporting x16 mode) graphics card and four
PCIe 3.0 x16 (supporting x1 mode) network cards, SCSI cards and other cards that comply
with the PCI Express specification.
Additional PCIe bifurcation and M.2 settings for RAID function are also supported
when a Hyper M.2 x16 series card is installed.
For full details on the PCIe bifurcation, you may visit the support site at
The Hyper M.2 x16 series card is sold separately.
Adjust the PCIe bifurcation under BIOS settings.
PCIe x16_2 and PCIe x16_3 share bandwidth with M.2_2.
