Z490 Chipset
1 x PCIe 3.0 x16 slot (supports x4 mode)*
1 x PCIe 3.0 x1 slot**
* The PCIEX16_3 shares bandwidth wih M.2_3.
* When M.2_3 runs x4 mode, PCIEX16_3 will be disabled. When M.2_3 and
PCIEX16_3 are both occupied, M.2_3 runs x2 mode, PCIEX16_3 runs X1
mode.
** The PCIEX1 shares bandwidth with M.2_1. When M.2_1 runs x4 mode,
PCIEX1 will be disabled.
*** Support PCIe bifurcation for RAID on CPU function.

* M.2_1 shares bandwidth with PCIEX1. When PCIEX1 is occupied, M.2_1
runs x2 or SATA mode (when M.2_1 runs SATA mode, SATA6G_2 will be
disabled).
** M.2_2 shares bandwidth with SATA6G_56. When M.2_2 runs x4 mode,
SATA6G_56 will be disabled. M.2_2 runs x2 mode by default.
*** M.2_3 shares bandwidth with PCIEX16_3. When PCIEX16_3 runs x4 mode,
M.2_3 will be disabled. When M.2_3 and PCIEX16_3 are both occupied,
M.2_3 runs x2 mode, PCIEX16_3 runs X1 mode
