PCI-E X16

[zedselder]

Hello,

 

I would like to know if you can run 4 PCI-E X16 cards and one PCI-E X8 card on any of these motherboard if you install al 40-PCI-E lane CPU

ASROCK X99 WS-E

ASROCK X99 WS-E/10G

ASROCK X99 Extreme 11

 

And if not then is there any motherboard that can run 4 PCI-E X16 cards and one PCI-E X8 card at the same time like the ASUS Z10PE-D8 WS and ASUS Z10PE-D16 WS

 

Thanks,

P.S. i am aware that the asrock are a single cpu motherboard while the asus are dual

Requires 2 CPUs

I am sure there are other X99 mobos that have that lane support and only 1 CPU

What about this gigabyte board? https://pcpartpicker.com/product/78KhP6/gigabyte-motherboard-gax99ud3prev10

Already checked all x99 motherboards

Only the asus dual cpu that supports what im looking for 

The asrock im not sure off but all the others i checked they dont support what i want

Asrock is a pretty cheapo company so I kinda doubt it

The only clue i have is that asus has a 1 cpu mobo with plx chip but can only run 4 cards at x16 so maybe the asrock are the same

[zedselder]

so after downloading the manual i found that both the asrock x99 ws-e and asrock x99 ws-e/10g support 4 pci-e x16 cards with 3 pci-e x8 cards simaltenusely at the same time thanks to 2 plx 8747 chips which give out 48 pci-e lanes each for a total of 96 pci-e lanes.
the asrock x99 extreme 11 support a max of 4 x16 cards or 3 x16 and 2 x8 cards
