Primary Dual Slot Cong (PCIEX16_1 and PCIEX8_1 slots)
Species the operating bandwidth for the PCIEX16_1 and PCIEX8_1 slots.
Auto Lets the BIOS automatically congure this setting depending on the device being
installed. (Default)
X16 PCIEX16_1 operates at x16 and PCIEX8_1 becomes unavailable.
X8/X8 PCIEX16_1 and PCIEX8_1 operate at x8 respectively.
Secondary Dual Slot Cong (PCIEX16_2 and PCIEX8_2 slots)
Species the operating bandwidth for the PCIEX16_2 and PCIEX8_2 slots.
Auto Lets the BIOS automatically congure this setting depending on the device being
installed. (Default)
X16 PCIEX16_2 operates at x16 and PCIEX8_2 becomes unavailable.
X8/X8 PCIEX16_2 and PCIEX8_2 operate at x8 respectively.
PCIEX4_2 Slot Cong
Species the operating bandwidth for the PCIEX4_2 slot.
As X1 Link PCIEX4_2 operates at x1 mode. (Default)
As X4 Link PCIEX4_2 operates at x4 mode. Please note that due to bandwidth sharing, the
onboard IDE, GSATA2_6, and GSATA2_7 connectors will become unavailable.
