Brief Description
For IMB-Q354, is it possible to use a PCIe x4 or PCIe x8 card in the PCIe x16 slot/interface?
Solution
PCI Express x4 and x8 configurations are not validated on Intel Q35 chipset.
It means that Intel Q35 (PCIe x16 interface) doesn’t support PCIe x4 or x8 cards properly.
After all, 16-lane (x16) PCI Express port is for external PCI Express-based graphics card only.
