PCI_E1~2: PCIe Expansion Slots PCI_E1: PCIe 5.0 x16 (From CPU) PCI_E2: PCIe 5.0 x8 (From CPU) ⚠ Important ∙ If you install a large and heavy graphics card, you need to use a tool such as MSI Graphics Card Bolster to support its weight to prevent deformation of the slot. ∙ For a single PCIe x16 expansion card installation with optimum performance, using the PCI_E1 slot is recommended. ∙ When adding or removing expansion cards, always turn off the power supply and unplug the power supply power cable from the power outlet. Read the expansion card's documentation to check for any necessary additional hardware or software changes. ∙ PCI_E1 slot will run at x8 speed when installing device in the PCI_E2 slot or M2_4 slot. ∙ PCI_E2 slot will be unavailable when installing M.2 SSD in the M2_4 slot. 33
