首先是基于Z790芯片组的华硕ROG STRIX Z790-A Gaming WIFI,将BIOS---Advanced---Onboard Devices Configuration设置下的PCIe Bandwidth Bifurcation Configuration设置为X8/X8,保存退出后,安装在M.2上的SSD就可以认到了: 系统下,可以看到显示卡运行在PCIe 4.0 X8,SSD运行在标准的PCIe 3.0 X4 (硬盘就是PCIe 3.0 X4...
PCI spec规定了PCI设备必须提供的单独地址空间:配置空间(configuration space),前64个字节(其地址范围为0x00~0x3F)是所有PCI设备必须支持的(有不少简单的设备也仅支持这些),此外PCI/PCI-X还扩展了0x40~0xFF这段配置空间,在这段空间主要存放一些与MSI或者MSI-X中断机制和电源管理相关的Capability结构。 前文提到过...
协议定义 Switch: A defined System Element that connects two or more Ports to allow Packets to be routed from one Port to another. To configuration software, a Switch appears as a collection of virtual PCI-to-PCI Bridges. Switch的概念:switch为一组虚拟PCI-to-PCI Bridges的集合,连接两个或多个...

This configuration is persistent even following resets and NIC firmware updates. The required set of configurations to implement this bifurcation is outlined below: mlxconfig-d<device>sPCI_BUS00_HIERARCHY_TYPE=0mlxconfig-d<device>sPCI_BUS00_WIDTH=5mlxconfig-d<device>sPCI_BUS00_SPEED=4mlxconfig-...

I do not think it's a waste for those who would use available bandwidth in a meaningful way. On motherboards with two PCIe 5.0 slots, it's easy to put GPU into one to run at x8 and then another AIC in the second slot to run at x8 too. BIOS allows bifurcation, so the second...
If you can't get bifurcation to work, there are alternative carrier cards with built-in PCIe switch (although if you're using a switch you're probably sharing bandwidth anyway, so you may as well put it in slot 4). I can also confirm that the cheapo PCIe 4.0 M.2 x 1 carriers do...
The PCIe Gen 3 configuration (bifurcation) is embedded in the Intel microcode merged into the BIOS bin file at build time, so the different bifurcation options can’t be selected at boot time, and users need to flash a different version of the BIOS. ...
I didn't see anything on if it supported bifurcation, but if it does, great 2 extra m.2 slots, if not, ok 1 extra m.2 slot. I went with GLOTRENDS PA41 Quad M.2 card. Also purchased MZQL215THBLA-00A07 15tb U.2 biggest & cheapest 7mm u.2 drive I coul...
