Well, since I cannot guess through my crystal ball about future products, I will just say about the current 44 lane CPU.
Slot 1: GPU 1 = (16 lanes from CPU)
Slot 4: GPU 2 = (16 lanes from CPU), cumulative 32 lanes used
M.2 (110 mm): PCIe NVMe 4x = (4 lanes from CPU) *Disables U.2 slot, 36 lanes cumulative
M.2 (80 mm): PCIe NVMe 4x = (4 lanes from CPU), 40 lanes cumulative
Under these conditions, if you put a non-video card into slot 6, this receives 4 lanes from the PCH (Chipset).
How the additional 4 lanes for the 10th gen get distributed is anyones guess
