Notes:
  1. Theoretical Maximum Bandwidth (GB/s) = ((Transfer Rate * Encoding * # PCIe Lanes) /8)/1000
    • Gen3 Example: = ((8000 * 128/130* 4)/8)/1000 = 3.94 GB/s
  2. When GbE is enabled on a PCIe* Root Port, the Max. Device (Ports) value listed is reduced by a factor of 1

PX PCH Supported PCI Express* Link Configurations

Notes:
  1. The PCH PCIe* Link Configuration support will vary depending on the PCH SKU. Refer to the PCH SKU details covered in the "Introduction" section
  2. RP# refers to a specific PCH PCI Express* Root Port #; for example RP3 = PCH PCI Express* Root Port 3
  3. A PCIe* Lane is composed of a single pair of Transmit (TX) and Receive (RX) differential pairs, for a total of four data wires per PCIe* Lane (such as, PCIE[3]_​TXP/ PCIE[3]_​TXN and PCIE[3]_​RXP/ PCIE[3]_​RXN make up PCIe Lane 3). A connection between two PCIe* devices is known as a PCIe* Link, and is built up from a collection of one or more PCIe* Lanes which make up the width of the link (such as bundling 2 PCIe* Lanes together would make a x2 PCIe* Link). A PCIe* Link is addressed by the lowest number PCIe* Lane it connects to and is known as the PCIe* Root Port (such as a x2 PCIe* Link connected to PCIe* Lanes 3 and 4 would be called x2 PCIe* Root Port 3).
  4. The PCIe* Lanes can be configured independently from one another but the max number of configured Root Ports (Devices) must not be exceeded
    • PCH-PX: A maximum of 6 PCIe* Root Ports (or devices) can be enabled
      • When a GbE Port is enabled, the maximum number of PCIe* Ports (or devices) that can be enabled reduces based off the following:
      • Max PCIe* Ports (or devices) = 6 - GbE (0 or 1)
  5. Unidentified lanes within a PCIe* Link Configuration are disabled but their physical lanes are used for the identified Root Port
  6. Lane Reversal Supported Motherboard PCIe* Configurations = 1x4, 2x1+1x2, and 2x2
    • The 2x1+1x2 configuration is enabled by setting the PCIe* Controller soft straps to 1x2+2x1 with Lane Reversal Enabled
    • 1x4 = 1x4 with Lane Reversal Disabled, 1x4 LR = 1x4 with Lane Reversal Enabled
    • 2x2 = 2x2 with Lane Reversal Disabled, 2x2 LR = 2x2 with Lane Reversal Enabled
  7. For unused USB 3.2/PCIe* Combo Lanes, the unused lanes must be statically assigned to PCIe* or USB 3.2 via the USB 3.2/PCIe* Combo Port Soft Straps discussed in the SPI Programming Guide and through the Intel® Flash Image Tool (Intel® FIT) tool.
