Asrock X570 Taichi bifurcation?

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

   I recently purchased an Asrock X570 Taichi and I noticed that IU you use the third M.2 slot you lose the third PCIe slot.

I see that Asus makes a card for the purpose of bifurcation that houses t4 slots for NVME SSDs.

Does this motherboard have bifurcation as a feature?
