Z390 Taichi PCI-E Lanes

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   I'm having a similar issue. My configuration is as follows:

PCIE1: Network card
PCIE2: GPU
PCIE4: HBA

M.2_1: nvme drive
M.2_2: nvme drive
M.2_3: nvme drive

Everything work flawlessly until I install the GPU. Once the GPU is installed, the HBA gets disabled. The manual says that the configuration above should run at x8/x8 but it doesn't seem to. It also says that the M.2 slots do not share lanes with the PCIE slots. 

Is there a way to manually set the PCIE slots to 8 lanes? 
Any other ideas why this configuration would not be working?

P.S. I have tried all the usuals, multiple HBA cards, multiple GPUs, swapping slots, swaping PSUs, etc.

	Hi Animalm4st3r, Thank you for your post. In general, the M.2/SATA storage you connected to Z390 Taichi will not affect the PCIe Lanes of your GPU. We recommend following the below setup to install your device. PCIE2: GPU M.2_1: nvme drive M.2_2: nvme drive SATA3_2, SATA3_4~5: SATA devices SATA3_A1~A2: SATA devices All the best ASRock TSD

	Okay AsRock help me out here. You dont have a chipset for NVME and use the CPU PCI-E Lanes for the NVME drives. Right now im using 2 NVME Drives and 5 SATA Storage drives. So why is my GPU only running on 4 Lanes and not 8 when Intels specsheet states it should split the lanes as follows 1x16 or 2x8 or 1x8+2x4
